We examine the nucleosynthesis in the innermost, neutrino-processed ejecta (afew $10^{-3}\,M_\odot$) of self-consistent, two-dimensional explosion models ofcore-collapse supernovae for six progenitor stars with different initialmasses. Three models have initial masses near the low-mass end of the supernovarange, $8.8\,M_\odot$ (e8.8; electron-capture supernova), $9.6\,M_\odot$(z9.6), and $8.1\,M_\odot$ (u8.1), with initial metallicities of 1, 0, and$10^{-4}$ times the solar metallicity, respectively. The other three aresolar-metallicity models with initial masses of $11.2\,M_\odot$ (s11),$15\,M_\odot$ (s15), and $27\,M_\odot$ (s27). The low-mass models e8.8, z9.6,and u8.1 exhibit high production factors (nucleosynthetic abundances relativeto the solar ones) of 100--200 for light trans-iron elements from Zn to Zr.This is associated with appreciable ejection of neutron-rich matter in thesemodels. Remarkably, the nucleosynthetic outcomes for progenitors e8.8 and z9.6are almost identical, including interesting productions of $^{48}$Ca and$^{60}$Fe, irrespective of their quite different (O-Ne-Mg and Fe) cores priorto collapse. In the more massive models s11, s15, and s27, several proton-richisotopes of light trans-iron elements, including the $p$-isotope $^{92}$Mo (fors27) are made, up to production factors of $\sim$30. Both electron-capture andcore-collapse supernovae near the low-mass end can therefore be dominantcontributors to the Galactic inventory of light trans-iron elements from Zn toZr and probably $^{48}$Ca and live $^{60}$Fe. The innermost ejecta of moremassive supernovae may have only sub-dominant contributions to the chemicalenrichment of the Galaxy except for $^{92}$Mo.
