High-temperature partitioning of the stable isotopes of rock-forming elements like Mg, Si, Fe,
Ni and others are useful new tools in geochemistry and cosmochemistry. Understanding the …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

terrestrial rocks. By the year 1850, 18 elements had been identified in meteorites: carbon,
oxygen, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorous, sulfur, potassium, calcium …

The heavy iron isotopic composition of Earth's crust relative to chondrites has been
explained by vaporization during the Moon-forming impact, equilibrium partitioning between …

Isotope ratios of heavy elements vary on the 1/10000 level in high temperature materials,
providing a fingerprint of the processes behind their origin. Ensuring that the measured …

Central to understanding the processes that drive stable isotope fractionation in nature is
their quantification under controlled experimental conditions. The polyvalent element iron …

The differentiation of Earth into a metallic core and silicate mantle left its signature on the
chemical and isotopic composition of the bulk silicate Earth (BSE). This is seen in the …

Iron is the only polyvalent major element, and controls reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions
in a host of geologic processes and reservoirs, from the mineral-to planetary-scale, on Earth …

Terrestrial oceanic and continental basalts are enriched by approximately+ 0.1‰ in
56Fe/54Fe ratio relative to primitive, undifferentiated meteorites (chondrites). The δ56Fe …
