Re: [meteorite-list] What is Nickel content in Dronino meteorite?
Thanks for your response Piper. I read those sites you listed and am still a little confused. Based on what you posted below, if I had a chunk of Dronino in my hand, I could say it has a Nickel content of either 98.1%, 10.8% or 9.8%...I guess which one is dependent upon what part of the sample I'm referring to. So if I refer just to the Nickel content in the troilite its' about 98.1%. And the Nickel content in the rest of the Dronino is 9.8%, But combined it comes out to 10.8%. Is my understanding correct? GeoZay Chemistry : A bulk Dronino sample analyzed by INAA in UCLA contains: Ni 98.1, Co 5.54 (mg/g), Cr 37, Cu 32, Ga <0.3, As 3.52, W 0.38, Ir 1.68, Au 0.284 (ppm). The average of EMP analyses of the metal is 10.8 wt% Ni. The higher Ni concentration relative to the INAA data can be explained by the presence of troilite in the bulk sample. Dronino has about 10 vol% troilite, enough to significantly skew the bulk nickel content (9.8%) relative to that in the metal (10.8%). **A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.

[meteorite-list] What is Nickel content in Dronino meteorite?
Hi George and List, "what percentage of nickel is in the Dronino Meteorite?" This should help satisfy your curiosity: http://tin.er.usgs.gov/meteor/metbull.php?sea=Dronino&sfor=names&ants=&falls=&valids=&stype=contains&lrec=50&map=ge&browse=&country=All&srt=name&categ=All&mblist=All&rect=&phot=&snew=0&pnt=no&code=7732 Best, Bernd To: geo...@aol.com meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com __ http://www.meteoritecentral.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] What is Nickel content in Dronino meteorite?
Hi folks! By any chance does anyone know what percentage of Nickel is in the Dronino Meteorite? I've been trying to satisfy this curiosity, but I think I'm confusing myself. It seems to be somewhere between 8% to 18%. But I think it's close to 8.9%. Am I in the ball park? GeoZay **A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
