Hello list,
I have a question.
I have a piece of Brenham, Ks. It has very slim metal dividers that seperate
the Olivine crystal pockets.
There are other Pallasites that have much thicker metal dividers with
smaller
Olivine pockets.
The question----would the former be formed further from the core than the
latter?
In other words, are there differences in the Olivine/Ni-Fe ratio if the
meteorite
comes from the area closer to the core or further away from the core per a
cubic
meter quantity of each.
