The isotopic composition of xenon from CO2 gas from the Bueyeros Field, Harding County, NM has been redetermined in a brand new mass spectrometer and sample system into which no previous sample had ever been inserted except for small calibration samples of air. The large excess found for Xe-129 agrees perfectly with earlier work on this sample and thus can in no way be attributed to meteoritic contamination of the measuring systems. An important constraint on the thermal history of the earth implied by this result is valid as far as the experimental observations are concerned.
