Tungsten solar abundance

Earth, relative to average solar system (chondrites). However, the tungsten isotopic difference between early metals and the silicate Earth on its own does not provide constraints on timing. One needs to know the atomic abundance of Hf at the start of the solar system (or the ( Hf/ Hf)Bssn the bulk solar system initial ) and the composition of the chondritic reservoirs from which most metal and silicate reservoirs were segregated. In other words, it is essential to know to what extent the extra in the silicate Earth relative to iron meteorites accumulated in the accreted chondritic precursor materials or proto-Earth with an HfAV 1 prior to core formation, and to what extent it reflects an accelerated change in isotopic composition because of the high HfAV ( 15) in the silicate Earth.
