Multielemental analysis of chondrules from unequilibrated E3 chondrite Parsa show that the lithophile elements, both refractory and volatile, are enriched and siderophiles are depleted relative to C1 abundances. This behaviour is generally similar to chondrules from unequilibrated ordinary chondrites (UOC). A detailed comparison of compositional trends in chondrules from E3 chondrites (Parsa and Quingzhen) with UOC's indicates that some of the precursor components of chondrules of E3's are different from those of UOC's.
