Abstract

Using combined XRD-XRF analysis to identify meteorite ablation debris

Highlights

  • Information Location: Pind (33°09'47"N and 73°34'09"E) approximately half a kilometer northeast of village Lehri (33°09'09"N and 73°33'35"E) in district Jhelum, Pakistan. For analysis purposes, representative samples were collected from different sites on the location using magnetic prospecting. These sites lie within a narrow patch of land approximately 100 m across and 250 m in length, extending north to south on both sides of the road that leads from village Lehri to a nearby village Rawatra, further up in the northeast direction

  • Presence of metallic phase in the interior structure of a polished surface of the tested sample stone is illustrated using photomicrographs taken with reflected light at 20× and 100× magnification

  • Elemental Composition of the Sample Stone Determined through WD-XRF Spectrometry Analysis
