    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>
    <jats:p>CI1 chondrites are rare meteorites with high scientific value. In fact, they are the most chemically primitive meteorites and show evidence of intense parent‐body aqueous alteration. They also share strong similarities with samples from Ryugu and Bennu asteroids returned by the JAXA Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions. In this work, we present a detailed study of the Oued Chebeika 002 meteorite, a ~420 g CI1 chondrite found in Morocco in 2024. We describe its petrography, texture, and mineralogy, with a focus on clay mineralogy. We provide the bulk and mineral chemical composition, as well as the bulk oxygen, iron, and chromium isotopic compositions. Spectroscopic properties were studied by means of infrared and Raman spectroscopies. We also measured the density, grain density and magnetic properties. Our results confirm that Oued Chebeika 002 is a CI1 chondrite, with close similarities to the other five know CI1 chondrites, and samples from Ryugu and Bennu asteroids. Several lines of evidence indicate that Oued Chebeika 002 has suffered no significant terrestrial alteration. It is more pristine in that regard than Alais, Orgueil and Ivuna CI1 chondrites, and more similar to samples from asteroids Ryugu and Bennu. Subtle differences exist between Oued Chebeika 002 and other CI1 chondrites that cannot be accounted for by terrestrial alteration of the latter. For instance, olivine and calcite were not observed. It is also noteworthy that the magnetic mineral assemblage of Oued Chebeika 002 is significantly different from that of Alais, Ivuna and Orgueil, but undiscernible from that of Ryugu samples. Chromium and iron isotopic composition of Oued Chebeika 002 confirms that CI1 chondrites, like Ryugu samples, are distinct from meteorites belonging to the non‐carbonaceous and carbonaceous isotopic groups and may have originated from the same region where ice giant planets and Oort Cloud comets were formed.</jats:p>

    <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Nucleosynthetic isotope variations are powerful tracers to determine genetic relationships between meteorites and planetary bodies. They can help to link material collected by space missions to known meteorite groups. The Hayabusa 2 mission returned samples from the Cb‐type asteroid (162173) Ryugu. The mineralogical, chemical, and isotopic characteristics of these samples show strong similarities to carbonaceous chondrites and in particular CI chondrites. The nucleosynthetic isotope compositions of Ryugu overlap with CI chondrites for several elements (e.g., Cr, Ti, Fe, and Zn). In contrast to these isotopes, which are of predominately supernovae origin, <jats:italic>s</jats:italic>‐process variations in Mo isotope data are similar to those of carbonaceous chondrites, but even more <jats:italic>s‐</jats:italic>process depleted. To further constrain the origin of this depletion and test whether this signature is also present for other <jats:italic>s</jats:italic>‐process elements, we report Zr isotope compositions for three bulk Ryugu samples (A0106, A0106‐A0107, C0108) collected from the Hayabusa 2 mission. The data are complemented with that of terrestrial rock reference materials, eucrites, and carbonaceous chondrites. The Ryugu samples are characterized by distinct <jats:sup>96</jats:sup>Zr enrichment relative to Earth, indicative of a <jats:italic>s</jats:italic>‐process depletion. Such depletion is also observed for carbonaceous chondrites and eucrites, in line with previous Zr isotope work, but it is more extreme in Ryugu, as observed for Mo isotopes. Since <jats:italic>s</jats:italic>‐process Zr and Mo are coupled in mainstream SiC grains, these distinct <jats:italic>s‐</jats:italic>process variations might be due to SiC grain depletion in the analyzed materials, potentially caused by incomplete sample digestion, because the Ryugu samples were dissolved on a hotplate only to avoid high blank levels for other elements (e.g., Cr). However, local depletion of SiC grains cannot be excluded. An alternative, equally possible scenario is that aqueous alteration redistributed anomalous, <jats:italic>s</jats:italic>‐process‐depleted, Zr on a local scale, for example, into Ca‐phosphates or phyllosilicates.</jats:p>

    Carbonaceous meteorites are thought to be fragments of C-type (carbonaceous) asteroids. Samples of the C-type asteroid (162173) Ryugu were retrieved by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We measure the mineralogy, bulk chemical and isotopic compositions of Ryugu samples. They are mainly composed of materials similar to carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, particularly the CI (Ivuna-type) group. The samples consist predominantly of minerals formed in aqueous fluid on a parent planetesimal. The primary minerals were altered by fluids at a temperature of 37 ± 10°C, (Stat.) (Syst.) million years after formation of the first solids in the Solar System. After aqueous alteration, the Ryugu samples were likely never heated above ~100°C. The samples have a chemical composition that more closely resembles the Sun’s photosphere than other natural samples do.

  • Molybdenum isotopic compositions in NE Japan in rear arc

    Recently, Mo isotope ratios in subduction zone volcanic rocks have been studied in a number of volcanic arcs to understand the recycling of subducted material in subduction zones. However, the processes that control the variations in Mo isotope ratios in rocks samples from the rear arc (RA) region remain unclear. The Northeast Japan (NE Japan) has many volcanoes from the volcanic front (VF) to the region of the RA, and is a suitable for comparing changes in geochemical composition along with the slab depth of each volcano. In this study, we measured Mo isotopic compositions of Kampu and Sannomegata in the RA volcanoes of NE Japan and compared them with previous studies. Samples from Kampu showed relatively low Mo isotope ratios similar to the other RA volcanos (Chokai, Iwaki) in the NE Japan (-1.20 to -0.29; N = 5), while those from Sannomegata showed Mo isotope ratios similar to those of VF in the NE Japan (+0.35 to +1.83; N = 3). The samples from Kampu have relatively high SiO2 abundances (53.0 to 63.8%), which may have been influenced by differentiation including hornblende. The low SiO2 abundance (48.1 to 51.6%) of the samples from the Sannnomegata, which are very close to those of primary magma, but with significantly larger Mo isotope ratios than DM and other magmas, require further investigation.

    The extraterrestrial materials returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu consist predominantly of low-temperature aqueously formed secondary minerals and are chemically and mineralogically similar to CI (Ivuna-type) carbonaceous chondrites.

    O-poor minerals in Ryugu and CI chondrites are higher than in other carbonaceous chondrite groups but are similar to that of comet 81P/Wild2, suggesting that Ryugu and CI chondrites accreted in the outer Solar System closer to the accretion region of comets.

    <jats:p>Little is known about the origin of the spectral diversity of asteroids and what it says about conditions in the protoplanetary disk. Here, we show that samples returned from Cb-type asteroid Ryugu have Fe isotopic anomalies indistinguishable from Ivuna-type (CI) chondrites, which are distinct from all other carbonaceous chondrites. Iron isotopes, therefore, demonstrate that Ryugu and CI chondrites formed in a reservoir that was different from the source regions of other carbonaceous asteroids. Growth and migration of the giant planets destabilized nearby planetesimals and ejected some inward to be implanted into the Main Belt. In this framework, most carbonaceous chondrites may have originated from regions around the birthplaces of Jupiter and Saturn, while the distinct isotopic composition of CI chondrites and Ryugu may reflect their formation further away in the disk, owing their presence in the inner Solar System to excitation by Uranus and Neptune.</jats:p>

    We have conducted a NanoSIMS-based search for presolar material in samples recently returned from C-type asteroid Ryugu as part of JAXAʼs Hayabusa2 mission. We report the detection of all major presolar grain types with O- and C-anomalous isotopic compositions typically identified in carbonaceous chondrite meteorites: 1 silicate, 1 oxide, 1 O-anomalous supernova grain of ambiguous phase, 38 SiC, and 16 carbonaceous grains. At least two of the carbonaceous grains are presolar graphites, whereas several grains with moderate C isotopic anomalies are probably organics. The presolar silicate was located in a clast with a less altered lithology than the typical extensively aqueously altered Ryugu matrix. The matrix-normalized presolar grain abundances in Ryugu are 4.8 ± 2.6/4.7 ppm for O-anomalous grains, 25 ± 5/6 ppm for SiC grains, and 11 ± 3/5 ppm for carbonaceous grains. Ryugu is isotopically and petrologically similar to carbonaceous Ivuna-type (CI) chondrites. To compare the in situ presolar grain abundances of Ryugu with CI chondrites, we also mapped Ivuna and Orgueil samples and found a total of 15 SiC grains and 6 carbonaceous grains. No O-anomalous grains were detected. The matrix-normalized presolar grain abundances in the CI chondrites are similar to those in Ryugu: 23 ± 6/7 ppm SiC and 9.0 ± 3.6/5.4 ppm carbonaceous grains. Thus, our results provide further evidence in support of the Ryugu–CI connection. They also reveal intriguing hints of small-scale heterogeneities in the Ryugu samples, such as locally distinct degrees of alteration that allowed the preservation of delicate presolar material.

    The aqueous environment of ancient Mars is of significant interest because of evidence suggesting the presence of a large body of liquid water on the surface at ~4 Ga, which differs significantly from the modern dry and oxic Martian environment. In this study, we examined the Fe-bearing minerals in the 4 Ga Martian meteorite, Alan Hills (ALH) 84001, to reveal the ancient aqueous environment present during the formation of this meteorite. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis was conducted to determine the Fe species in ALH carbonate and silica glass with a high spatial resolution (~1–2 μm). The μ-EXAFS analysis of ALH carbonate showed that the Fe species in the carbonate were dominated by a magnesite-siderite solid solution. Our analysis suggests the presence of smectite group clay in the carbonate, which is consistent with the results of previous thermochemical modeling. We also found serpentine in the silica glass, indicating the decrease of water after the formation of carbonate, at least locally. The possible allochthonous origin of the hematite in the carbonate suggests a patchy redox environment on the ancient Martian surface.

    Geofluids, especially aqueous and carbonate ones have great influences on physicochemical properties of Earth materials, which in turn play significant roles in physical and chemical processes in the Earth's interior. Recent findings of close relationships between the loci of fluid liberation and those of seismicity in subduction zones have led many researchers to a speculation that just geofluids are the key player in seismic activities in subduction zones as well as in igneous activities. Geofluids in subduction zones also play critical roles in the global carbon cycle, which is one of the most important factors that control climate changes of the Earth's surface. This special issue "Geofluids" reports various aspects of aqueous, carbonate, and hydrocarbon fluids that reside in the shallow and deep interiors of subduction zones. Many of the six papers in this special issue were written by presenters in the session "Geofluids: the role of fluids in the Earth's interior" in the annual meeting of the Geochemical Society of Japan 2011. We hope that the papers in this special issue would provide readers with up-to-date understandings of the roles of geofluids in various activities and phenomena in this restless planet.

  • Development of precise isotope analyses of U-series nuclides for the study of U-series disequilibria in magma processes

    Language:Japanese   Publisher:The Geochemical Society of Japan  

    In order to understand various magma processes occurring in the terrestrial body, highly precise isotope analyses of U, Th and Ra have been developed. In the first, an effective silicate rock decomposing method was established. Conventional acid digestion of mafic silicate rocks resulted in the precipitation of insoluble fluorides and very poor recovery yields of some trace elements. In contrast, almost 100% of the trace elements were recovered using larger amounts of HClO4 than was conventionally used and evaporating the sample to dryness in a step-wise fashion. Then, new chemical separation methods of U, Th, and Ra were developed by employing some novel extraction chromatographic resins. For U isotope analysis by TIMS, a new activator, silisic-acid and phosphoric acid mix solution was very effective to produce stable and strong UO2+ beam, resulted in excellent improvement for both precision and reproducibility. For Ra isotope analysis, a new, precise and accurate analytical method was developed by employing total evaporation TIMS technique. These new methods have been applied for Miyakejima volcano, Izu arc, Japan. 238U-230Th-226Ra disequilibria observed in lavas with large 238U and 226Ra excesses imply metasomatism of depleted mantle by fluid related processes. In the equiline diagram, the trends for two magmatic stages (Stage 1 and 2) are regarded as two different isochrons with a common initial (230Th/232Th) ratio, although the trend for Stages 3 and 4 is a mixing line. The age difference in the equiline diagram corresponds to the interval of individual fluid-release events. Thus, fluid release from the slab and subsequent magma generation occur as episodic events on a several-kyr timescale. The model calculations show a very rapid ascent time of the slab components in the mantle wedge (<7 kyr), which can be explained by nearly instantaneous material transport in the mantle wedge.

    We have participated in the analytical competition related to the sample-return mission, MUSES-C of the ISAS, to be launched in May 2003 and returned in summer 2007. In this competition, we have determined major and trace element abundances and isotopes (as many as possible), both for two powdered samples provided by the ISAS and for chondrules separated from Allende meteorite as an additional demonstration of our high-spatial resolution analytical capabilities for fragment samples. 100 mg of each of the competition samples, 1C and 2C, were split into two fractions of approximately 30 and 70 mg for the determinations of elemental abundances and the isotope analyses, respectively. The bulk concentrations of 55 elements in each 30 mg sample were analyzed by quadruple-type ICP-MS and sector-type ICP-MS with analytical uncertainties better than 10 percent (1 sigma). B, Pb, Li, Rb, Sr, Sm and Nd were successively separated from the remaining 70 mg of each of the samples, using a novel integrated, multi-ion exchange column chemistry approach, and then the isotopes of these elements were successfully determined by TIMS with analytical errors similar to those for analyses of terrestrial samples. The Sr, Nd, Re and Os isotopic compositions were also analyzed using the remaining aliquots of the sample solutions for trace element analyses by ICP-MS. The results obtained in this study indicate that 1C and 2C samples are probably ordinary chondrite and the Allende meteorite, respectively. However, extreme W, Ta and Nb enrichments in the 1C were probably caused by contamination during sample preparation. Furthermore, both of the samples were extensively contaminated by B from the borosilicate glass container in which the samples were delivered. Five chondrules were separated from Allende meteorite and then sliced into three pieces using a dicing saw. The center slices were used to petrographically determine the mineral phases, compositionally map these phases by SEM-EDX, and obtain quantitative major and trace element compositions (30 elements) by SEM-EDX and ion microprobe. The two outer slices, for which sample masses were less than 1 mg, were chemically treated to obtain the bulk trace elements and isotope compositions of the chondrules. For the chondrule slices, 24 trace elements and Sr and Nd isotopic compositions were determined with extremely small analytical uncertainties by ICP-MS and TIMS (for Sr and Nd, respectively). Based on the analytical experience, including this competition, we believe that all of the analyses carried out could have been completed within 50 days if we could have concentrated on this project alone during that 50-day period. In this report, we describe the analytical techniques employed for the powdered samples and the chondrules, and we present all of the results obtained during the approximately 3-month period of the analytical competition.

    星の化学組成解読によるr過程元素解明については、以下の2つの業績を論文として残した。(1). 太陽でのr過程元素の含有量は、太陽近傍星での平均的な値と比べおよそ20-30%程度少ないことを観測的に指摘し、この原因について、太陽系が現在の場所ではなく銀河中心近く(バルジの外側付近)で生まれ、その場所でのバースト的な星形成に付随した化学進化を反映した結果であることを明らかにした。(2). 太陽と化学的物理的特徴が類似した太陽双子星の組成解読の分析結果を化学進化の理論モデルと融合させることから、r過程元素起源天体の同定に成功した。これは太陽双子星の年齢からその星が生まれた場所を同定でき、かつその場所での化学進化を理論的に予測することができるという独自の発想から生まれた手法に基づいたもので、これよりr過程元素の起源天体はこの宇宙に2種類、つまり長寿命の中性子星合体と短寿命の超新星爆発、が存在しなくてはいけないことを明らかにした。また、両者によるr過程元素への貢献度はほぼ同程度であることも突き止め、超新星のr過程への重要性を強調した。

    また、分担者横山氏と共にr過程を含む元素合成に関する最新の情報を含む総説を執筆し、Encyclopedia of Geology 2nd editionに公表した。さらに横山氏は、隕石の核合成起源同位体異常を高精度測定するため、単一隕石試料からr過程元素を含む20種類の元素を同時に化学分離する手法を立ち上げるとともに、表面電離型質量分析計(TIMS)を用いて隕石のCr同位体比を超高精度・高確度で測定する新しい手法を開発した。これらの手法を炭素質コンドライトに適用し、隕石のTiおよびCr同位体比の測定結果を地球試料と比較することから、炭素質コンドライトが中性子過剰の環境で形成される50Tiおよび54Crに富むということを確認した。

    前年度採取した岩石試料のロシアからの輸送を行い、全岩・鉱物分析、およびデータ解析を進めた。コロナ禍のため、ロシアからの試料輸送は国際荷物便にておこなった。ロシアからの岩石輸送にあたっての輸出許可に時間がかかり、ロシア側研究者の判断で、許可の不要な個別輸送(一つ一つのパッケージを、1か月以上の間をおいて発送)した。このため、一通りの試料輸送が完了したのが2022年に入ってからであったが、到着したものから順番に分析を開始し、これまでに主成分元素組成分析および薄片作成を終了した。
    また、日本列島上の火成活動に対する沈み込む海山の影響をを探るため、富士-箱根地域の火山岩の予備研究を開始した。地球化学組成データセット構築・統計解析を目的とし、効率的・高精度な分析方法を探るため、いくつかの試料について複数の処理方法を模索した。特に微量元素濃度については、主成分分析用のガラスビードをもちいたLA-ICP-MS分析の精度や確度を確認した。さらに高次元多変量統計解析の準備を開始した。日本列島に沈み込む海山のうち、茨城沖の海山列(その延長は富士山・箱根の方向に延びる)はHIMU・FOZOとよばれるホットスポット溶岩に類似するが、その組成は十分には把握されていない。将来の試料分析を想定し、類似する組成をもつアフリカ・ホットスポット火山の組成分析を行い、手法の確立とその特徴把握を進めた。
    さらに、沈み込む海洋プレートの多様性とその島弧火成活動への影響を調べる一環として、チリ海嶺沈み込み地域の地下構造-火成活動・テクトニクスとの関連性を把握するため、チリ南部の三重会合点(南米プレートに、ナスカプレートと南極プレートの活動的拡大軸が沈み込む場所)周辺の地震探査を進めた。2年間の自然地震観測を終えた海底地震計合計14台の回収を、チリ研究者・チリ海軍の協力を得て行い、日本に向けての輸送作業を開始した。

    コンドライト隕石および鉄隕石の高精度Mo同位体分析を行い、その結果をAstrophys. J.に公表した(Yokoyama et al., 2019)。昨年度報告したように、高圧分解装置(DAB-2)の分解にはMo汚染の問題があり、Mo同位体測定には適さないことがわかっている。そこで、分析対象としてプレソーラー粒子を含まない炭素質コンドライト(CK4-5)を選択し、DAB-2を使わずに試料の分解を行った。表面電離型質量分析計でMo同位体組成を測定したところ、炭素質コンドライトおよびIVB鉄隕石(CCグループ)とその他の隕石(NCグループ)に明確なMo同位体二分性が確認され、更にCCグループ内、NCグループ内にMo同位体組成変動があることが判明した。一部の鉄隕石には宇宙線照射によるMo同位体組成の変化が見られたが、これら鉄隕石の高精度Os同位体分析を行うことにより、宇宙線照射の影響を補正することに成功した。
    同位体変動の原因を解析したところ、CCグループ内のMo同位体組成変動は小惑星帯外側におけるs-核種の不均質分布によって引き起こされたことが分かった。一方、NCグループ内のMo同位体組成変動は、1) 原始太陽系星雲で一部のプレソーラー粒子が熱過程によって選択的に破壊され、ガスとして分離したか、あるいは2) NCコンドライトのマトリクス存在度とFe-Ni合金存在度が隕石種ごとに異なることが原因と考えられる。
    これまでの分析から、全ての隕石と比較して地球が最も低いμ94Mo・μ95Mo値を持つことが明らかになった。レイトベニアによって地球の水を説明する場合、地球よりも低いμ94Mo・μ95Moを持つ物質が必要になるが、そのような隕石を見つけることはできなかった。今後は原始地球の組成を保持しうる試料として、太古代岩石試料や月試料のMo同位体分析を行う必要があることが分かった。

    The aim of this research is to derive a new planet formation theory by measuring isotope anomalies of heavy elements in meteorites and constraining the dynamic history of precursor materials of planetesimals. The isotopic compositions of Sr, Nd, and Mo in meteorites revealed the presence of two isotopically distinct reservoirs in the early solar system where parent bodies of meteorites were formed. In particular, the outer asteroid belt was found to be enriched in components derived from supernovae. Such isotopic variability is caused by the heterogeneous distribution of s- and r-process nuclides in the early solar system, which was triggered by the selective destruction of dust grains by nebular thermal processing in the inner solar system, followed by the transportation of recrystallized-silicate dusts into the outer solar system.

    High precision analysis of U and Th abundances is key for dating presolar grains by U-Th nuclear cosmochronology. In this study, we have developed an isotope dilution TIMS method that enables the determination of 1 pg U and Th with analytical reproducibilities of 0.45% and 1.3%, respectively. The U-Th cosmochronology with this method would provide a 0.7 Gyr of uncertainty for the age of presolar grains determined.
    On the other hand, we constrained the origin and evolution of r-process nuclides in the solar vicinity by a new theoretical study that combined the chemical composition of meteorites with galactic chemical evolution models and astronomical observations. Consequently, the timing of last r-process nucleosynthesis that contributed the solar system was determined to be 0.13-0.14 Gyr before the onset of solar system formation.

    It is very important to understand the Hadean Earth for decoding the history of the earth. However, it is difficult to directly study the Hadean Earth because geologic recode over 4.03 billion years before is not preserved yet. Thus, we tried to decode the evolution of the early Earth through establishment of an analytical method of 146Sm-142Nd isotope system, geological investigation of the Early Archean geologic terrains, and chemical and isotopic analysis of the Early Archean rock samples. We found the oldest rocks of 4.27 Ga mafic rocks and 3.95 Ga supracrustal rocks, evidence for the plate tectonics and organism from the 3.95 Ga Nulliak supracrustal belt, and the large-scale early differentiation and later homogenization. All of them are new discoveries, and give a significant insight into early earth evolution.

    Geochemical heterogeneity in the Earth’s mantle has been investigated based on the Quaternary basalts over the globe. With a special attention to recently proposed “east-west mantle geochemical hemispheres”, (1) detailed inspection along the hemisphere boundary, (2) Independent Component Analysis of global geochemical data, and (3) numerical simulation of water-bearing mantle convection have been performed. As a result, it has been revealed that (A) the eastern hemisphere is relatively enriched in hydrophile components, and (B) the hemispherical structure extends from the near-surface to the inner core via “top-down hemispherical dynamics” in which the supercontinent and focused subduction towards it could have created the global hemispherical structure.

    地球は約45.4億年の長い歴史をもつ、複雑・多様に進化した惑星である。しかし、その誕生を示す45.4億年前の物質は地球には残されていない。地球誕生から現存する最古の岩石が存在するまでの時代は冥王代と呼ばれ、その知識はいまだ冥い。本研究の目的は、物質学的研究によって、この昏冥の時代の固体地球進化を解読することである。私たちは地質試料がほとんど残されておらず、物質学的研究の困難なこの時代の研究を①太古代初期の地質体の詳細な地質調査に基づく残存冥王代地殻の探索、②消滅核種同位体分析、③総合的な冥王代ジルコン研究の三つの戦略で遂行する予定であったが、基盤S研究の採択により、本研究計画は辞退する。しかし、これらの研究は発展的に基盤S研究に引き継がれる。研究計画が開始してまだ数ヶ月ではあるが、研究の遂行に向け、着実に成果が得られている。①の研究に関連し、中国と南アフリカにおいて地質調査を行った。②に関連して、146Sm-142Nd消滅核種同位体系の分析法の確立をめざし、隕石物質の分析を実現した。また、182W/184W消滅核種同位体系分析をラブラドルのマントルカンラン岩を用いて行った。ラブラドルの表成岩は私たちの研究により世界最古(39.5億年前)であることが示されたので、本研究はこれまでのものよりも約1.4億年遡る最古のデータとなる。また、従来の研究では堆積岩や玄武岩・花崗岩質のもののみであったので、本研究の分析が最初の太古代最初期の超塩基性岩のデータとなる。分析の結果、これらの岩石から最大22ppmの異常が見られた。また、187Os/188Os同位体分析をアカスタ片麻岩体の苦鉄質岩において行い、約40億年前とする最古年代を得た。これらの成果を国内外の学会で発表した。

    Geophysical observation has suggested that the mantle transition zone beneath NE China is hydrous, and intraplate magmatism of this region has been caused by a transition zone-derived mantle plume. In this study, petrological and geochemical analyses were carried out on basaltic rocks in NE China to estimate the water content of the mantle transition zone. It is suggested that the water content of the source mantle is up to 350 ppm, which is significantly higher than that of the normal upper mantle (~120 ppm). As a preliminary result, the water content of the mantle transition zone of ~0.7 wt.% is obtained.

    We have investigated the external shape and internal structure of chondrules contained in Allende meteorite, to reveal the chondrule formation mechanism. We measured about 100 chondrules and found 15 chondrules, which can be considered to be completely molten once. We compare the obtained relationship between the size and the shape of those chondrules with the theoretical relation that is obtained assuming the gas-frictional heating. Then, we have found that those two relations are consistent each other. This implies that the chondrules in Allende meteorite were exposed to the gas flow when they were molten.

    This research demonstrates the presence of the second continent in the mantle transition zone, equivalent to ten times the volume of the continent. This is based on the quantitative evaluation of tectonic erosion through time and both the growth mechanism of granitic crust and quantification of its generation also through time. Furthermore, we revealed the history of dispersion and amalgamation of the 1.8 Ga supercontinent by radioactive heat effect of the third continent, and obtained evidence which strongly indicates that the third continent (fallen primordial continent, particularly KREEP basalt) is the main constituent of the “D” layer. Lastly, we proposed the model combining the three-layer model and the Earth history to systematize the mantle dynamics including that of the second continent. This model is to steer the research regarding the mechanism to generate the liquid core, which has not been unraveled by numerical computation of Earth’s convection, in a new direction.

    We have investigated the origin of heterogeneous isotope distribution for heavy elements in the early solar system. Highly precise isotope analyses of Sr, Nd, Te, and Mo were conducted using TIMS for bulk rocks of chondrites and nonchondrites, as well as for chondrite components (e.g., CAIs, chondrules, acid leachates). We found that planetary scale isotope heterogeneities exist only for moderately refractory elements with 50% condensation temperature between 1300K to 1600K (e.g., Cr, Mo, Sr). This implies that isotope heterogeneities for moderately refractory elements were created by a dynamical history of dust grains related to thermal processing, material transportation, and mixing in the protoplanetary disk prior to planetesimal formation, rather than assuming processes such as supernova injection and/or grain-size sorting.

A combined analysis with oceanic basalts has revealed for the first time the presence of east-west hemispherical structure: the mantle in the eastern hemisphere is enriched in subducted hydrophile components, being possibly brought into the mantle by focused subduction towards the supercontinent once existed in the eastern hemisphere, whereas that in the western hemisphere is not.

(1) Geochemical mapping of the geofluids over the Japan arcs show that the Arima-type birne is dominant as a geofluid. (2) Isotopic compositions of heavy elements in the arc volcanic rocks put constraints on the distribution and amount of slab-derived fluid over the Japan arcs, being strongly related to the tectonic settings. (3) Pb-Nd-He isotopic compositions of the ore deposits have been successfully analyzed, showing its potential origin from the slab-derived fluid. In addition, trace element transportation in subduction zones, including U-Th secular disequilibiria, has been numerically modeled, demonstrating the migration paths and modes of slab fluids.

    We have investigated Os isotope compositions in chondritic acid residues enriched in presolar grains. We found that bulk chondrites contain various types of presolar phases that are rich in either s-process-Os or r-process-Os. The r-process-enriched phases could be extracted from chondrites by a relatively mild acid condition, while s-process-enriched phases appeared to be highly acid resistant. We also found that some r-process-enriched phases were selectively destroyed via parent body aqueous alteration.

    本研究の目的は火山噴出物におけるU-Th放射非平衡を用い、島弧マグマの発生から噴出までの諸現象に詳細な時間軸を与え、それを物理化学的に定量化することである。私はこれまでに三宅島溶岩の主要元素、微量元素、Sr・Nd・Pb同位体組成、及びU-Th-Ra放射非平衡を測定し、三宅島のマグマ形成に寄与したスラブ由来流体が、その放出からわずか数千年以内で地表での噴出に至ることを見出していた。昨年この結果を論文化し、国際誌JGRに発表した。
    本年度は鉱物単位でのRa-Th放射非平衡測定法を可能とするため、微小量Ra分析法の開発を行った。TIMSによる分析中の同位体分別効果を防ぐため、TETIMS法を世界で初めてRaに適用した。その結果、従来50fg必要であったRaの使用量を、最小1fgにまで減少することに成功した。
    本法を用いて、最近500年に噴出した三宅島溶岩のRa-Th非平衡を測定した。また、1983年溶岩の斜長石中のRa-Th非平衡を測定した。この斜長石のRa含有量は3fg/gしかなく、私が昨年開発した方法では測定不可能であったが、本年度開発した方法により高精度定量分析が可能となった。その結果、三宅島溶岩のRa-Thシステマティクスは一連の分別結晶作用では説明できず、非平衡度の異なる2つのマグマ、すなわち、高い非平衡度と低いTh濃度を持つ玄武岩質マグマ(BEM)と、低い非平衡度と高いTh濃度を持つ安山岩質マグマ(AEM)との混合により形成されたことが判明した。年代学的にはBEMの方がAEMより若く、したがって、500年以上前から定常的に存在したAEMに、新たにBEMが断続的に貫入しつづけていることが判明した。
    この結果を9月の岩石学会(仙台)にて口頭発表した。また、Goldschmidt国際会議(倉敷)において、これまで私が開発したU-Th-Ra分析法の総括を口頭発表した(招待講演)。
