Metal ions at meteor ablation heights have been probed in the auroral E-region by rocket-borne mass spectrometers with an altitude resolution better than 200 m within the Rocket and Scatter Experiments (ROSE) campaign. Metal ions were found between 80 and 100 km altitude in relatively high electric fields and sporadic E-layers in all four flights. Iron ions are overabundant by a factor of 2-5 compared to the solar system abundance. Magnesium ions are depleted relative to iron by an additional factor of 2. An intense thin layer which is considered to be a sporadic E-event was found at 91 km superimposed on the normal metal ion layer. Metalic ions detected include Na(+), Mg(+), Al(+), Ca(+), Cr(+), Fe(+), Ni(+), FeO(+), and possibly K(+).
