The HEAO-3 Heavy Nuclei Experiment has measured elemental abundances of ultraheavy cosmic rays near earth. The elements with atomic number (Z) in the intervals Z = 44-48 and Z = 62-74 arriving at earth are expected to have significant secondary components. However, their source abundances are unlikely to be low enough to warrant treating them as pure secondaries. The present results are consistent with solar system abundances modified for first ionization potential with possibly some enhancement of the r to s ratio.
