THE R e-O s ISOTOPE SYSTEM IN COSMOCHEMISTRY AND HIGH-TEMPERATURE GEOCHEMISTRY

Shirey, Steven B., Walker, Richard J.·1998·Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences

Abstract

▪ Abstract The Re-Os isotope sytem, based on the long-lived β−transition of 187 Re to 187 Os, has matured to wide use in cosmochemistry and high-temperature geochemistry. The siderophilic/chalcophilic behavior of Re and Os is different from that of the elements that comprise most other long-lived radiogenic isotope systems. Magmatic iron meteorites (IIIAB, IIAB, IVA, and IVB) have Re-Os isochrons that indicate asteroidal core crystallization within the first 10–40 million years of Solar System evolution. Rocks from Earth's convecting mantle show generally chondritic Re/Os evolution throughout Earth history that is explained by the addition of highly siderophile elements to the mantle after core formation via late accretion. Oceanic basalts have Os-isotope systematics that improve the detailed geological interpretation of extant mantle components. Some portions of ancient subcontinental lithospheric mantle are severely depleted in Re and have correspondingly subchondritic 187 Os/188 Os, indicating long-term isolation from the convecting mantle during the Archean-Proterozoic. Magmatic ore deposits have differences in initial Os isotopic composition traceable to the crustal vs mantle sources of the platinum-group elements and base metals.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
