Elemental Volatility During Vacuum Melting of Martian Meteorite NWA 8114

Research output: Chapter in Book/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution

Abstract

We show that vacuum melting of basaltic rocks results in severe depletion of U from silicate melts, comparable to Zn, quite contrary to its refractory behavior under reducing conditions.
