“…Mesosiderites have experienced complicated thermal histories. The well‐accepted formation model of mesosiderites (e.g., Rubin, 1997; Rubin & Mittlefehldt, 1993; Scott et al., 2001) can be divided into the following stages: (1) accretion and initial crystallization of mesosiderite silicates at 4.56–4.47 Ga (Haba et al., 2019; Stewart et al., 1994; Wadhwa et al., 2003); (2) collisional disruption and intense brecciation (Haba et al., 2017; Jourdan et al., 2021); (3) mixing of metal and silicates and rapid cooling (Delaney et al., 1981; Ganguly et al., 1994; Ruzicka et al., 1994; Tamaki et al., 2006); (4) deep burial and slow cooling (Bogard & Garrison, 1998; Haack et al., 1996; Hopfe & Goldstein, 2001; Yang et al., 1997); and (5) impact excavation and ejection at <4 Ga (Bogard, 2011; Bogard et al., 1990; Kring & Cohen, 2002). However, several key processes of mesosiderite formation have remained unclear, including the number of impact and reheating events, the time of metal and crustal silicate mixing, the degree and the peak temperatures of thermal metamorphism, and the emplacement depths in each thermal event (e.g., Caves, 2019; Pittarello et al., 2019; Sugiura et al., 2022).…”
