    Description: The determination of the genetic relationships between the dust and small particles in the solar system, and the meteorites and larger bodies are examined. Oxygen isotopes proved useful in the identification of such relationships between one meteorite group and another. Of the various samples of submillimeter extraterrestrial particles available for laboratory study, only the deep sea spherules are abundant enough for precise oxygen isotope analysis using existing techniques. Complications arise in interpretation of the isotopic data, since these particles were melted during passage through the Earth's atmosphere, and have been in contact with seawater for prolonged periods. Spherules that were originally silicates are considered with the originally metallic ones to deduce their preterrestrial isotopic compositions. The type 1 spherules which enter the atmosphere as metallic particles, contain only atmospheric oxygen. The type S spherules contain a mixture of atmospheric oxygen and their original extraterrestrial oxygen. It is suggested that the Earth's mesosphere is strongly enriched in heavy isotopes of oxygen at altitudes near 90 km at which the iron particles are oxidized. Fractionation due to the combined diffusion of O atoms and O2 molecules may be responsible.

    Description: Two forsterite-, fassaite-, spinel-rich inclusions in Allende which share common mineralogy and texture with three previously described inclusions are described. These inclusions were at least partially molten at temperatures over 1400 C, and their crystallization sequence was spinel, olivine, fassaite, and Mg-rich melilite. At least some of them experienced partial volatilization of MgO and SiO2 from their outer margins. At least one of the inclusions is highly enriched in MgO relative to CaO and Al2O3 compared to Allende coarse-grained inclusions, although it is just as strongly enriched in refractory trace elements as the latter, relative to C1 chondrites. Two of the objects are FUN inclusions on the basis of their oxygen, magnesium, and silicon isotopic compositions.
