Description
Howardites contain dark, carbonaceous chondrite clasts making up a few
percent of these meteoritic breccias. This work utilizes a micro-coring
technique to extract 1-20 microgram-sized samples of these clasts from
thin sections, and micro-INAA techniques to obtain trace element
concentrations. The hope was that the trace element geochemical details
would allow the carbonaceous chondrite types of the clasts to be readily
determined.
