Gas-rich meteorites are meteorites with high levels of primordial gases, such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and sometimes other elements. [1] Though these gases are present "in virtually all meteorites," [ 2 ] the Fayetteville meteorite has ~2,000,000 x10 −8 cc STP / g helium, [ 3 ] or ~2% helium by volume equivalent.
