Scientific paper

Results are presented of a detailed petrologic, chemical, and Mg-isotope study of SA-1, a basaltic Allende plagioclase-olivine inclusion. The chemical and isotopic data were used to identify the signatures of nebular vs. planetary processes and to determine if SA-1 contains a component produced by planetary differentiation. It was found that the results of major-element and trace-element abundances in SA-1 are inconsistent with its formation as a mixture of nebular materials. It is suggested that SA-1 contains a chemically fractionated component produced by igneous differentiation.
