    Description: Oxygen fugacities of diogenite and mesosiderite clast material were measured with the double ZrO2 cell technique between 800 and 1150 C. The samples were taken from large clasts in the diogenites Johnstown (En73) and Tatahouine (En75), and the mesosiderites Estherville (En81), West Point (Fo88) and Emery (En68). Fugacity values for all except Emery plot near the wuestite-iron buffer curve and are interpreted as indicating similar source regions and environments of crystallization for the two suites. Emery orthopyroxene records a lower fugacity, close to the fayalite-quartz-iron buffer curve, probably as a result of equilibration with the mesosiderite matrix assemblage. The similarity of redox conditions experienced by mesosiderite orthopyroxenite and diogenites is not sufficient to require a single parent body and, if the common achondrites were derived from Vesta, mesosiderites probably came from a different body.

    Description: High-pressure experiments in a piston-cylinder apparatus with silver-palladium containers were conducted to study the stability of synthetic armalcolite, (Fe,Mg)Ti2O5, as a function of pressures up to 15 kbar at 1000, 1100, and 1200 C. Three armalcolite compositions were used, each with an initial Fe/(Fe + Mg) ratio of 0.5. Composition I contained no zirconium, whereas compositions II and III were prepared with 4% and 10% by weight ZrO2. Difference in stability due to the presence or absence of Zr in these synthetic armalcolites is discussed. 4 wt% ZrO2 appears to saturate armalcolite at 1200 C and 1 atm. Zirconium is found to reduce armalcolite stability, but this effect is not great. The stability of armalcolite as a function of oxygen fugacity is determined thermogravimetrically at 1200 C and 1 atm. Knowledge of the range of oxygen fugacity at which armalcolite is stable and of the equilibrium oxide mineral assemblages outside this range provides important information about lunar cooling histories in terms of oxygen fugacity.
