Results are reported for an analysis of the isotopic composition of Xe in nodules of troilite (FeS) separated from the Odessa (Texas) and Cape York (Greenland) meteorites. The abundance patterns of the nonradiogenic Xe isotopes are found to match the abundance pattern of terrestrial Xe. The data obtained show that terrestrial Xe is trapped in the troilite from the two meteorites. It is concluded that the isotopic composition of terrestrial Xe represents the particular mix of nucleogenetic components of Xe that was dominant in a central region of the protoplanetary nebula that contained high concentrations of S and Fe.
