Iron Meteorite Cooling Rates COSMOCHEMISTRY iLLUSTRATED Exsolution in Iron Meteorites Bands of kamacite (Fe- Ni metal low in Ni) formed by exsolution in taenite, Fe-Ni higher in Ni. The two phases have different crystal structures. Kamacite exsolved along octahedral planes in taenite. IVA Iron Meteorite, Gibeon Photo by Jeffrey Gillis-Davis, U. of Hawaii
