Abstract/NotesSummaryThese minerals indicate strongly reducing conditions as well as extremely low sulphur fugacities within the Newport pallasite. They all formed at low temperatures (upper limit 580° C) and in the solid state. This is the first reported occurrence of mackinawite and pentlandite from a pallasitic meteorite; Cu is known from only one other pallasite. Microprobe analyses of a large Cu grain indicate its composition as 98·6 ± 0·5 %, Ni 2·0 ± 0·5, Fe below the limit of detection (∼0.3).
