It has a higher than expected ratio of [Mg/Ca] than other metal poor stars in ultra-diffuse galaxies. The chemical enrichment of Grus ll is from the stellar nucleosynthesis of core collapse supernovas from high mass stars over 20 solar masses and the merging of neutron stars. The stars within Grus ll may also possess a small enhancement of rapid neutron capture (r-process) elements.^[2]
