The supernova remnants (SNR) SN1006 and Tycho are considered to be originating from type I supernovae (SN). Therefore one may expect a large amount of heavy elements, particularly iron, in the SNRs. In fact, our recent analysis of new data on the X-ray spectrum Tycho shows strong line emission associated with ionized silicon, sulfur and iron. This result contradicts the results of previous analyses which did not require an overabundance of iron.
