摘要: Nitrogen and noble gases were measured in a bulk sample acid-resistant carbon-rich residues of the ureilite Allan Hills (ALH) 78019 which has experienced low shock is free diamond. A small amount amorphous carbon combusting at ≤500 °C carries most gases, while major phase consisting large crystals graphite combusts ≥800 °C, almost noble-gas free. on other hand present both graphite, with different δ15N signatures -21‰ +19‰, respectively, distinctly from very light nitrogen (about -100‰) Amorphous ALH behaves similar to Q chondrites respect gas release pattern, behavior towards oxidizing acids as well isotopic composition. In situ conversion or diamond through would require an fractionation 8 12% for favoring isotope, unlikely proposition, posing severe problem widely accepted origin
