(a) Normalized Fe K-edge XANES spectra of sample grains, isoferroplatinum, magnetite, hematite, goethite, and ferrihydrite. Note that Pt-Fe “oxide” grains have similar spectra as isoferroplatinum, but that isoferroplatinum has higher peak at 7122 eV than at 7128 eV. (b) The curve “mix” is a hypothetical spectrum of a 10:90 mixture of isoferroplatinum and ferrihydrite and the contribution of the two components to the mixture are shown as thin lines. The spectrum of the mixture fits well with the observed spectrum of Grain 4. For the clarity of the diagram, another mixture is not shown, but the spectrum of Grain 3 fits well with an 11:89 mixture of isoferroplatinum and ferrihydrite.
