The uranium content of eight stone meteorites, five chondrites, and three achondrites were determined by a neutron activation method for very small uranium concentrations. The method is based on the measurement of Xe/sup 133/ and Xe/sup 135/ produced by the fission of U/sup 235/. It is shown that with one exception all the chondrites investigated have an almost constant uranium content of 1 x 10/sup -8/ g/g meteorite. The uranium content of the achondrites has a wide variation. The thorium/uranium ratio in the stone meteorites has a mean value of 3.46. (tr-auth)
