Formation of the GRA 06128\/9 meteorites as primary melts on an oxidized planetesimal has been previously proposed (, ,  ;  ). We show experimentally that anhydrous partial melting of an oxidized R chondrite at IW to IW+1 between 1120-1140\u00b0C produces melts of GRA 06128\/9-like compositions: intermediate SiO2 and FeO concentrations that are enriched in volatile sodium. From a process perspective, GRA 06128\/9-like magmas are complementary to partial melt residues such as olivine-rich brachinite and FeO-rich brachinite-like meteorites. Magmas of GRA 06128\/9\u2019s composition can be generated under equilibrium conditions, as demonstrated by MELTS modeling, but only at temperatures \u223c1140\u00b0C. At lower degrees of partial melting liquids formed under equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions follow distinct compositional pathways to reach GRA 06128\/9-like melts. For lower degrees of melting, the non-equilibrium trend more closely resembles GRA 06128\/9\u2019s composition. Phase abundance modeling indicates that GRA 06128\/9-composition magmas form by 14-22% silicate melting of an oxidized R-chondrite. We conclude that GRA 06128\/9-composition magmas can be generated at \u223c1140\u00b0C from partial melting of an oxidized chondritic precursor under both non-equilibrium and equilibrium conditions.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nicole G.
