New bulk oxygen isotope measurements of nine angrites, and of olivine \u2018xenocrysts\u2019 and groundmass fractions from three quenched angrites, however, reveal clear isotopic disequilibrium, implying an impact melt origin. Groundmass fractions from Asuka 12209, Asuka 881371 and Northwest Africa 12320 quenched angrites demonstrate an average \u039417O value of \u22120.003\u2009\u00b1\u20090.020\u2030. Here, excluding the bulk value and all groundmass fractions of Northwest Africa 12320, which is contaminated by an impactor, we determine a new well constrained average \u039417O value for the angrite parent body (\u22120.066\u2009\u00b1\u20090.016\u2030). Microstructural investigations of Northwest Africa 12320 reveal the presence of both fully recrystallized and undeformed olivine xenocrysts, indicating that some xenocrysts underwent high-temperature processes. These results suggest that angrites bear signatures of impact-driven isotopic mixing, possibly in response to early giant planet migration. The evidence for impact mixing raises doubts about the utility of quenched angrites as a suitable Pb\u2013Pb isotopic anchor, which in turn has consequences for accurately defining the timeline of other Solar System events.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
