| Abstract | The metals Os, Re, Ir, Ru, Pt, Rh, Pd and Au are called highly siderophile elements (HSE) because of their strong siderophility as reflected in the very high metal/silicate partition coefficients. Advances in analytical techniques, new experimental results on the solubility of HSE in silicate melts and the precise determination of the Os-isotopic composition of geological samples have stimulated new research on HSE-abundances in the Earth's mantle. |
