Abstract

Iron sulfide and metal melt veins in chondritic materials are associated with advanced stages of dynamic shock. The shock-induced residual temperatures liquefy the sulfide component and enable melt distribution. However, the distribution mechanism is not yet fully understood. Capillary forces are proposed as agents of melt distribution; yet, no laboratory experiments were conducted to assess the role that capillary forces play in the redistribution of iron sulfide in post-shock conditions. To investigate this further, we conducted thermal experiments under reducing conditions (N2(g)) using dunitic fragments, suitable chondritic analog materials that were doped with synthesized troilite (stoichiometric exact FeS). We observed extensive iron sulfide (troilite) migration that partially resembles that of ordinary chondrites, without the additional influence of shock pressure-induced fracturing. The iron sulfide melt infiltrated grain boundaries and pre-existing fractures that darkened the analog material pervasively. We also observed that the iron sulfide melt, which mobilized into grain boundaries, got systematically enriched in Ni from the surrounding host olivine. Consequently, FeNi metal fractionated from the melt in several places. Our results indicate that capillary forces majorly contribute to melt migration in the heated post-shock environment.

期刊介绍: First issued in 1953, the journal publishes research articles describing the latest results of new studies, invited reviews of major topics in planetary science, editorials on issues of current interest in the field, and book reviews. The publications are original, not considered for publication elsewhere, and undergo peer-review. The topics include the origin and history of the solar system, planets and natural satellites, interplanetary dust and interstellar medium, lunar samples, meteors, and meteorites, asteroids, comets, craters, and tektites. Our authors and editors are professional scientists representing numerous disciplines, including astronomy, astrophysics, physics, geophysics, chemistry, isotope geochemistry, mineralogy, earth science, geology, and biology. MAPS has subscribers in over 40 countries. Fifty percent of MAPS'' readers are based outside the USA. The journal is available in hard copy and online.
