  We present the results of the X-ray XMM-Newton observations of NGC 507, a
dominant elliptical galaxy in a small group of galaxies, and report
'super-solar' metal abundances of both Fe and a-elements in the hot ISM of this
galaxy. We find Z_Fe = 2-3 times solar inside the D25 ellipse of NGC 507. This
is the highest Z_Fe reported so far for the hot halo of an elliptical galaxy;
this high Iron abundance is fully consistent with the predictions of stellar
evolution models, which include the yield of both type II and Ia supernovae.
The spatially resolved, high quality XMM spectra provide enough statistics to
formally require at least three emission components: two soft thermal
components indicating a range of temperatures in the hot ISM, plus a harder
component, consistent with the integrated output of low mass X-ray binaries
(LMXBs). The abundance of a-elements (most accurately determined by Si) is also
found to be super-solar. The a-elements to Fe abundance ratio is close to the
solar ratio, suggesting that ~70% of the Iron mass in the hot ISM was
originated from SNe Type Ia. The a-element to Fe abundance ratio remains
constant out to at least 100 kpc, indicating that SNe Type II and Ia ejecta are
well mixed in a scale much larger than the extent of the stellar body.
