The ratios of potassium to rubidium determined for a series of oceanic volcanic rocks suggest that the K/Rb ratio of the upper mantle exceeds 1500. The similarity between this inferred K/Rb ratio for the mantle and that found in some achondritic meteorites suggests a similar overall composition for these materials.
