The rare gases He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe were measured in bulk samples of Yamato 74123. The He-3 and Ne-21 exposure ages are found to be 5.50 Ma and 2.83 Ma, respectively. In addition to the cosmogenic component the samples contain primordial rare gases of the fractionated type in amounts typical of ureilites. In a three-isotope plot neon turns out to be a mixture of planetary neon and cosmogenic neon. The elements Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni have been determined by spark source mass spectrometry in Yamato 74123 and for comparison in the ureilites Havero and Kenna. The chemical composition as well as the noble gas abundance pattern identify Yamato 74123 as an ureilite.
