We have investigated Os isotope compositions in chondritic acid residues enriched in presolar grains. We found that bulk chondrites contain various types of presolar phases that are rich in either s-process-Os or r-process-Os. The r-process-enriched phases could be extracted from chondrites by a relatively mild acid condition, while s-process-enriched phases appeared to be highly acid resistant. We also found that some r-process-enriched phases were selectively destroyed via parent body aqueous alteration.
