A key prediction of this early enrichment scenario is that the intracluster medium in all massive clusters should be uniformly enriched to a similar level. Here, we confirm this prediction by determining the iron abundances in the outskirts (r > 0.25r(200)) of a sample of 10 other nearby galaxy clusters observed with Suzaku for which robust measurements based on the Fe-K lines can be made. Across our sample, the iron abundances are consistent with a constant value, Z(Fe) = 0.316 +/- 0.012 Solar (chi(2) = 28.85 for 25 degrees of freedom). This is remarkably similar to the measurements for the Perseus cluster of Z(Fe) = 0.314 +/- 0.012 Solar, using the Solar abundance scale of Asplund et al. ER -
