The nuclear composition of the cosmic rays around 10 to the 10th power to 10 to the 13th power eV total energy per nucleus has been calculated from recent counter measurements. The abundance of iron in the highest energy range is comparable to the abundance of protons and alpha particles, and increasing with energy. If this trend continues, the highest energy airshower events recorded are caused mostly by iron nuclei.
