Article Synopsis
  • The K-Pg boundary shows geochemical signs of extraterrestrial materials, but lacks evidence of volatilization, a process from large impacts.
  • Stable Zn isotopes effectively indicate volatility, where vaporization enhances heavy isotopes in remaining materials.
  • Analysis of Zn isotopes in K-Pg boundary sediments reveals heavier Zn values and lower concentrations, suggesting partial evaporation linked to the impact event, distinguishing it from volcanic influences or weathering effects.
