SEM microphotographs of SHS-treated pellets. (A) Scoriaceous texture. (B) Detail of A. Granular forsterite and wüstite pave the bubble cavities and globular metallic iron drops, suggesting that the Tmelting of iron was attained. (C) Blocky, vesicular texture. (D) Scoriaceous texture showing an outer silicate shell (dark grey), including an inner metallic layer (light grey, arrow on the left). The arrow on the right indicates the inter-growth of globular metallic Fe within olivine. (E) Large globular metallic iron drop. (F) Scoriaceous texture of wüstite + forsterite, including irregularly scattered globular iron drops.
