The discovery of the high-pressure polymorph of (Fe,Ni)<sub>2</sub>P, allabogdanite in the surficial pyrometamorphic rocks of the Hatrurim Formation (the Mottled Zone) surrounding the Dead Sea basin in Israel is the first terrestrial occurrence of a mineral previously only found in iron meteorites. Stepwise annealing experiments demonstrate that allabogdanite is metastable at ambient pressure and that it irreversibly transforms into its low-pressure polymorph, barringerite, upon heating to 850±50°C. High-pressure high-temperature diamond-anvil cell (DAC) experiments confirm the results of annealing experiments. The DAC data indicate that Hatrurim allabogdanite is metastable below 7.4 GPa, and the low- to high-pressure phase transition (barringerite→allabogdanite) occurs at 25±3 GPa and 1400±100°C. The observed transition pressure of Hatrurim allabogdanite is significantly higher than that of pure synthetic Fe<sub>2</sub>P (8 GPa), due to partial substitution of Fe for Ni (4 wt. %F PUB:(DE-HGF)16 %9 Journal Article %U <Go to ISI:>//WOS:000673958300009 %R 10.2138/am-2021-7621 %U https://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/449035
