Notes. Data of meteorites marked with a hook are used for model optimisation. (a) Without correction for miscalibration of K decay constant (Renne et al. 2011; Schwarz et al. 2011, 2012). For this, 30 Ma has been added to each of the pieces of data, except for L6 Park. (b)feldspar, (c) phosphates, (d) whole-rock data.
