泛滥平原沉积物标准物质研制

泛滥平原沉积物能代表流域内元素的平均分布规律并具有普遍的适用性,是地球化学填图工作的重要介质。目前国际上尚无泛滥平原沉积物标准物质,国外相似标准物质的研制注重于环境方面,定值成分较少;我国同类的土壤和水系沉积物标准物质受限于不同工作需要,研制目的各不相同,且多数标准物质不足。为满足需求,本文研制了长江流域、赣江流域、汉水流域、淮河流域、黄河流域、海河流域、黑龙江流域共7个泛滥平原沉积物国家一级标准物质(编号为GBW07385～GBW07391)。此系列标准物质采用X射线荧光光谱压片法测试了26种成分,主量成分的RSD小于1%,微量元素的RSD约为2%,所有成分的RSD均小于7%,方差检验的F值均小于临界值F0. 05(24,25)=1. 96,表明样品的均匀性良好。在23个月的考察期内,检验的24种成分未发现统计学意义的明显变化,证明样品的稳定性良好。由全国13家实验室采用不同原理的、可靠的多种分析方法共同完成了73种元素和化合物共511个特性成分的定值测试,除GBW07386和GBW07388的CO2未能赋值外,其余494个特性成分给出了认定值与不确定度,15个特性成分给出了参考值,是我国同类标准物质定值最为齐全的一个系列。该系列标准物质代表了各自流域元素的背景含量,适用于多目标地球化学调查、土地质量地球化学调查等样品的分析质量监控,亦可用作环境、农业等领域相关样品测试的量值和质量监控标准。     

The Preparation and Characteristics of the Geochemical Certified Reference Material BEM (Emeishan Basalt)

A basaltic certified reference material BEM, prepared by Chengdu University of Technology, has recently been approved as a Primary Grade Reference Material (GBW07126) by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of China. BEM was sampled from the Emeishan Basalts in China, which is one of the largest basalt provinces in the world. After successfully completing homogeneity and stability tests, collaborative analyses were carried out in seventeen Chinese institutes and laboratories and two American laboratories. More than ten reliable analytical methods based on different principles of measurement were adopted, of which ICP-MS, NAA and ICP-AES contributed 60.5% of all results. Fifty-four elements and oxide components were characterised as certified values, four elements as recommended values and nine elements as information values. A minimum sampling mass of 40 mg for most elements is recommended for use.     

Determination of Trace Elements (Ag, B, Ge, Mo, Sn, W, Tl) in Reference Samples of Soils and Bottom Sediments by Atomic Emission Spectrometry: A Traceability and Fitness-for-Purpose Study

Reference samples of soils from the Institute of Applied Physics, Irkutsk (RIAP), the Institute of Geochemistry, Irkutsk (IGI) and the United States Geological Survey, Reston (USGS) were analysed with the aim of determining Ag, B, Ge, Mo, Sn, Tl and W abundances by an atomic emission method with air-stabilised D.C. arc excitation. Two series of reference samples of soils and bottom sediments, GSS-1-8 and GSD-1-12 (IGGE), were used to ensure the traceability link for the analytical results. Traceability was also demonstrated through the comparison of measured results by AES and ICP-MS methods. It is shown that the reference samples GSS-1-8 and GSD-1-12 satisfied the "fitness-for-purpose" criterion (uncertainty U of the certified value should be one-third to one-tenth the magnitude of routine laboratory data uncertainty S (S/U > 3-10)) and can be applied for calibrating AES techniques.     

Determination of REE, Y, Nb, Zr, Hf, Ta, Th and U in Geological Reference Materials LSHC-1 and Amf-1 by Solution and Laser Ablation ICP-MS

This paper presents data on REE and Y, Nb, Zr, Hf, Ta, Th and U abundances for two candidate reference materials (RMs), spinel lherzolite LSHC-1 and amphibole Amf-1, being currently developed at the Institute of Geochemistry SB RAS, Irkutsk. To determine the contents of these elements inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry was applied with: (i) solution nebulisation (solution ICP-MS) and (ii) laser ablation (LA-ICP-MS) of fused glass disks. The precision of results obtained by both techniques was better than 6% RSD for most elements. Accuracy was assessed by using the geochemical RMs JB-2, JGb-1 (GSJ) and MAG-1 (USGS). The trace element results by solution ICP-MS for JGb-1 and JB-2 agree with reference values presented by Imai et al. (1995, this Journal) within 1–10%. Significant differences were found for Nb and Ta determinations. The accuracy of LA-ICP-MS results evaluated by RM MAG-1 was within 4%, except for Eu (about 10%). The analytical results obtained for LSHC-1 and Amf-1 by solution ICP-MS and LA-ICP-MS were in good agreement with each other and with INAA and XRF data presented for the certification of these RMs. They can be considered as the indicative values for assigning certified values to the above-mentioned RMs.     

Study and Application of Geochemical Reference Materials in the Institute of Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration (IGGE), China

In order to meet the needs of geochemical mapping and geochemical exploration, 125 geochemical reference materials have been successively prepared by the Institute of Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration (IGGE) since 1978. They include certified reference materials of stream sediments (GSD1-14), soils (GSS1-16; ASA 1–6, for analysis of available elements), various rocks (GSR1-6, GSR13-15), biological material (GSV1-4 and GSB 1–10), synthetic silicates (GSES I 1–11) and limestones (GSES II 1–9 for spectral analysis). They also include geochemical reference materials for ore analysis: Cu-Pb-Zn ores (GSO1-4), Cu-Pb-Zn concentrates (GSO5-7), platinum-group element (PGE) ores (GPt5-6 and GPt9-10), silver ores (GAg1-6) and geochemical reference materials for Au (GAu8-14) and PGE determination (GPt1-4, and GPt7-8). A multi-laboratory collaborative analysis scheme was adopted in the certification procedure of the IGGE. Dozens of competent laboratories with hundreds of senior analysts in China participated in the certification analysis. These samples have been supplied to more than thirty countries and more than 4000 customers from national industrial, agricultural, environmental, scientific and educational fields. Most of the geochemical reference materials are used for the calibration of measuring apparatus, evaluation of analytical methods, certification studies, quality control and laboratory accreditation programmes.

These samples supplement the GSR 1-6, GSD1-8 and GSD 9-12 certified reference materials already prepared and characterized by the IGGE.     

GBW10010a大米标准物质复(研)制及数据特征

随着我国对生态文明建设的重视,自然资源综合调查势在必行,对生物标准物质亦提出了新的需求。当前相关调研工作已经大面积开展,自然资源综合调查、农产品与食品安全评价都需要对生物样品元素组成进行准确测试,需要以生物标准物质作为生物成分测试量值比对和溯源的基础,因此对生物基体标准物质的需求量大幅增加。大米作为主要粮食之一,其食品安全日益受到重视,对大米中的化学成分进行准确的分析测试具有重要的现实意义,因而对大米标准物质的需求量尤为突出,但目前大米成分分析标准物质已供不应求。本文严格按照《标准物质定值的通用原则及统计学原理》（JJF 1343—2012）和《地质分析标准物质的研制》（JJF 1646—2017）等相关规范要求,开展了GBW10010a大米成分分析标准物质的复（研）制工作,包括样品采集、加工制备、均匀性检验、稳定性检验、多家实验室协作定值测试及不确定度评定等关键环节。结果表明：本次复（研）制的大米标准物质定值成分多样、量值准确可靠,符合国家一级标准物质的要求。GBW10010a共定值54项主微量元素,包括Ag、Al、As、B、Ba、Be、Bi、Ca、Cd、Ce、Co、Cr、Cs、Cu、Dy、Er、Eu、Fe、Gd、Ge、Hg、Ho、K、La、Li、Ho、Mg、Mn、Mo、N、Na、Nb、Nd、Ni、P、Pb、Pr、Rb、S、Sb、Sc、Se、Si、Sm、Sr、Tb、Th、Tl、Tm、U、V、Y、Yb、Zn,其中的39项元素给出了标准值及不确定度,包括Ag、Al、As、B、Ba、Ca、Cd、Ce、Co、Cs、Cu、Dy、Er、Fe、Hg、K、Li、Mg、Mn、Mo、N、Na、Nd、Ni、P、Pb、Pr、Rb、S、Sb、Se、Si、Sm、Sr、Tb、Tl、Y、Yb、Zn;15项元素提供参考值,包括Be、Bi、Cr、Eu、Gd、Ge、Ho、Ho、La、Nb、Sc、Th、Tm、U、V。与原有GBW10010大米标准物质相比较,GBW10010a中As、Cd、Co、Cr、Cu、Hg、Mn、Mo、Ni、Zn等重金属元素含量显著下降,其中Cd、Cu、Zn降幅较大,分别下降约39%、43%、38.7%,一定程度上反映了农田生态环境的改善。本批标准物质定值元素总数量增加了6项,新增定值元素Ag、Nb（Nb给出参考值）,并且各项元素不确定度范围整体上有所缩小,如Al、Cd、Cu、Fe、K、Mg、Mo、Na、P、Pb、Se、Zn等对生物易有影响的重要元素,表明了地质分析测试方法技术的进步及定值水平的提高。本批标准物质定值元素涵盖了具有生物效应的大部分主微量元素,适用于农业生态环境地球化学调查与评价、生物样品测试、农产品质量与食品安全评价样品测试时的分析仪器校正、分析方法评价和分析质量监控等多个领域。     

长江三角洲沉积物标准物质研制

美国、加拿大等国家先后研制了10余个海湾和河口沉积物标准物质,但定值成分较少,大多侧重于有机污染物和放射性核素值。我国于2007年研制了3个黄河三角洲沉积物标准物质,为进一步满足近海地球化学调查及资源勘探的需要,本文按照ISO导则35和国家一级标准物质技术规范,研制了2个长江三角洲沉积物标准物质。按照不同粒径采集两个候选物样品,样品经干燥、球磨至200目,采用电感耦合等离子体质谱和发射光谱法进行均匀性检验,结果表明F实测值小于列表临界值F0.05(24,25)=1.96,样品均匀性良好。在两年时间内采用X射线荧光光谱法进行了4次稳定性检验,未发现统计学意义上的明显变化,样品稳定性良好。由12家有技术权威的实验室共采用13种准确、可靠的分析方法进行协作定值,最终定值元素53项,涵盖了主量、微量及全部稀土元素,其中主量成分含量呈梯度分布,如Al2O3的含量分别为16.42%、11.48%。该系列标准物质定值元素种类多,定值方法准确,能够为河口三角洲地区地质及环境调查的分析测试工作提供可靠的质量保证。

地球化学基准与环境监测实验室分析指标对比与建议

全球高质量一致性地球化学基准数据和建立全球地球化学一张图平台,是持续监测全球环境变化的定量参照标尺。本文通过对中国、欧洲、美国和澳大利亚汞、镉、钨地球化学数据对比和中国同一实验室间隔15年两次分析数据对比发现:镉元素在不同实验室和同一实验室间隔15年分析的数据是一致的(相关系数0.96),汞元素一致性较差(相关系数0.74),钨元素不具有可比性(相关系数0.56)。镉元素分析结果的高度一致是因为分析方法相同的和检出限相近;汞元素一致性较差,特别是低含量汞存在显著差异,是因为分析方法不同和检出限不同;钨元素在不同实验室不具有可比性是因为实验室分析方法存在显著差异。环境变化量必须大于野外采样误差(REsmpl)和实验室重复样误差(RDlab)之和(RCenv>REsmpl+RDlab),才能确认观测点发生了环境显著变化。因此,必须将采样误差和实验室分析误差降到最低。本文提出实验室分析的6点基本要求:①原始样品过10目筛,使用无污染加工到粒度小于200目;②使用成熟的多方法分析71种元素+其他指标,其中主量组分以玻璃熔片X射线荧光光谱法(XRF)分析为主,微量元素以四酸分解样品,电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)和电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法(ICP-OES)为主要分析技术,配合其他特殊分析方法;③分析检出限必须低于地壳克拉克值,报出率不低于90%;④使用的标准物质必须具有涵盖所有分析元素的认定值;⑤实验室重复样分析相对误差含量小于3倍检出限RD≤40%,大于3倍检出限RD≤20%,主量元素、铁族元素和重金属元素重复样分析相对误差RD≤20%;⑥主量组分SiO2、Al2O3、Fe2O3、FeO、MnO、MgO、CaO、Na2O、K2O、TiO2、P2O5、H2O^+(结晶水)、有机碳、CO2、SO2等15项,或SiO2、Al2O3、Fe2O3、FeO、MnO、MgO、CaO、Na2O、K2O、TiO2、P2O5、LOI(烧失量)等12项加和为99.3%~100.7%。     

GEOCHEMICAL STANDARD REFERENCE SAMPLES GSD 9–12, GSS 1–8 AND GSR 1–6

The 18 Chinese geochemical standard reference samples GSD 9-12 (stream sediments), GSS 1-8 (soils) and GSR 1-6 (rocks) were prepared after GSD 1-8 (stream sediments) for even wider and increasing needs of geology, exploration geochemistry and geochemical analysis. Usable values of 41 trace, minor and major elements of the 18 samples were published in 1984. In the following two years, efforts were concentrated on the determination of other elements, most of which are more difficult to determine accurately and hence not many data were available in the literature. At the same time, additional data on the 41 elements already evaluated were also submitted. In all, 155 234 results were available along with the 35 284 analytical data submitted. The processing of samples, the examination of sample homogeneity, the plan of collaborative analysis of the samples, and the criteria for defining the recommended values are described. The recommended or reference values of the 72 constituents, to-gether with the 35 284 analytical data of the 18 samples are published in this paper.     

The Preparation and Preliminary Characterisation of Eight Geological MPI-DING Reference Glasses for In-Situ Microanalysis

Eight silicate glasses were prepared by directly fusing and stirring 50-100 g each of basalt, andesite, komatiite, peridotite, rhyolite, and quartz-diorite. These are referred to as MPI-DING glasses and were made for the purpose of providing reference materials for geochemical, in-situ microanalytical work. Results from various analytical techniques indicate that individual glass fragments are well homogenised with respect to major and trace elements at the μm to mm scale. Heterogeneities due to quench crystallisation of olivine have been observed in small and limited areas of the two komatiitic glasses. In order to obtain concentration values for as many elements as possible, the glasses were analysed by a variety of bulk and microanalytical methods in a number of laboratories. The analytical uncertainties of most elements are estimated to be between 1% and 10%. From the analytical data, preliminary reference values for more than sixty elements were calculated. The analytical uncertainties of most elements are estimated to be between 1% and 10%.     

Comparison of Synchrotron Radiation X-Ray Fluorescence with Conventional Techniques for the Analysis of Sedimentary Samples

A comparison is made of elemental analyses of sediment samples (lake bottom sediments and sediments from the petroliferous Bazhenovka Formation) by five competitive methods (synchrotron radiation X-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF), INAA, ICP-MS, AAS and traditional XRF). The object of this study was to identify the most suitable analytical techniques for applications in sedimentary geochemistry. Advantages and shortcomings of the five techniques were considered with respect to applications related to studies of palaeo-climate changes recorded in sedimentary cores from Lake Baikal and the geochemical stratigraphy of the Bazhenovka Formation, which is rich in organic material. We have concluded that SR-XRF was the best technique for producing extensive analytical data series, from the point of view of its speed, ease of application, cost, non-destructive nature and sensitivity, which allowed for the simultaneous determination of more than twenty elements of geochemical interest in small samples of sediments. An additional benefit of the method was demonstrated when used for the independent certification of geological reference materials. International reference samples BIL-1 and SDO-1 were certified by means of this method without use of reference materials. Analyses were based on the physics of the theory of energy transport.

Platinum-Group Element Geochemical Certified Reference Materials (GPt1-7)

Unlike the situation for other elements, few reference materials certified for the platinum-group elements are currently available. Therefore, the GPt1-7 series of PGE geochemical CRMs, prepared by the IGGE, represent an important addition and comprise a range of matrix types, including a soil, stream sediment, Mg-rich ultramafic rock, Fe-rich ultramafic rock, platinoid ore depleted in Cu, Ni and Fe, and a chromitite. The concentration of PGE in these samples ranges over 4-5 orders of magnitude and the samples were shown to have good homogeneity as assessed by a variance test. Analytical methods based on different principles were used in sample certification, including several fire assay and wet chemical procedures used for decomposition and preconcentration. Certified values for the elements Pt, Pd, Os, Ru, Ir, Rh and Au were determined by AAS, catalytic colourimetry (COL), catalytic polarography (POL), atomic emission spectrometry (AES), ICP-MS and NAA. Recently, the GPt1-7 samples were approved as national primary CRMs by the State Bureau of Technical Supervision of China.     

Chemical Characterisation of NIST Silicate Glass Certified Reference Material SRM 610 by ICP-MS, TIMS, LIMS, SSMS, INAA, AAS and PIXE

National Institute of Science and Technology (NIST) silicate glass SRM 610 is widely used as a certified reference material for various micro-analytical techniques such as SIMS or laser ablation ICP-MS. SRM 610 has been nominally doped with sixty one trace elements at the 500 μg g⁻¹ level, but certified concentration data exist for only a few of these elements. This study reports concentration data for fifty nine trace elements obtained by ICP-MS, SSMS, LIMS, TIMS, INAA, AAS, and PIXE analyses of two different SRM 610 wafers. Most elements fall within a 10% band around a median value of about 440 μg g⁻¹. The REE concentrations are shown to be constant to 3% (1 σ), thus emphasizing the value of SRM 610 as a reference material for REE analyses.
Comparison of our values with published data suggests that different SRM 610 wafers are, within errors, chemically identical for most elements. Exceptions to this general rule appear to be restricted to elements which were partly lost during the production of the glass, e.g. Ag and Br. On the basis of six independent determinations of Rb concentrations, which are systematically lower by a few percent than the reported NIST value, we argue that the certified Rb concentration may not be representative for all distributed SRM 610 wafers.     

电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定碳酸盐岩中30种痕量元素及干扰校正研究

应用电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)分析碳酸盐岩样品中的痕量元素,其中高钙基体的存在会对元素的分析信号产生明显的抑制或增强作用,从而引起显著的基体干扰。本文研究了硝酸-盐酸-高氯酸-氢氟酸四酸敞开溶样体系下ICP-MS同时测定碳酸盐岩中30种痕量元素的方法。重点分析了质谱干扰包括样品基体本身所带来的谱线干扰、同量异位素干扰和多原子离子干扰,并对钙含量高的碳酸盐岩样品中Ca对Ni的干扰进行了试验,分别采用数学公式或干扰系数等方法对干扰因素进行校正,使分析结果得到了明显改善。标准物质的测定值与标准值基本一致,方法精密度(RSD)除个别元素为10%~15%,大多数元素均小于10%,符合地质样品分析规范要求。
