Extended Data Table 1 Tungsten contents and isotopic compositions of mixing components

From: Tungsten isotopic evidence for disproportional late accretion to the Earth and Moon

  1. Component A corresponds to a typical KREEP-rich sample. The basin-forming impactor (component B) has either a chondritic composition or is composed of IVA iron meteorite material similar to the Bushman Land meteorite15 as proposed in ref. 16. The calculated W isotopic compositions of the mixture demonstrate that the μ182W of Apollo 16 impact melts was not measurably affected by a contribution of W from basin-forming impactor(s).
