Compact Type A (CTA) inclusions are extremely melilite-rich (typically 90 vol percent), with moderate amounts of spinel and minor fassaite and perovskite. Because CTAs are one of the major types of coarse-grained inclusions found in CV3 chondrites but have not been thoroughly studied as a group, we have undertaken a comprehensive petrographic, mineral-chemical, and trace element study of a large suite of CTAs from the CV3 chondrites Allende, Axtell, Efremovka, and Leoville. Here we report the results of a detailed study of a unique member of the suite, Allende inclusion TS2.
