Scientific paper

The radiogenic ages and Galactic cosmic-ray exposure ages (EAs) of two unusual chondrites are determined by measuring their noble-gas isotope abundances. The results are presented in tables and analyzed. Guangnan is found to have EA 2.9 + or - 0.4 Myr, low concentrations of radiogenic He-4 and Ar-40, U/Th-(He-4) age 27 + or - 16 Myr, and (K-40)-(Ar-40) age 142 + or - 14 Myr, consistent with significant gas loss no later than the onset of cosmic-ray exposure. Ningqiang has EA 42.2 + or - 4.0 Myr, U/Th-(He-4) age 4.17 + or - 0.16 Gyr, and (K-40)-(Ar-40) age 4.26 + or - 0.07 Gyr.
