Contribution to Evaluation of Analytical Data On Reference Samples

For evaluating the analytical data on reference samples, the following approach is proposed: 1. Analytical methods used are critically reviewed. 2. Outliers are eliminated. 3. Normality of the results is tested. 4. If normality of the results can be accepted, arithmetic mean, its confidence interval and coefficient of the precision are computed. 5. If the results are not normally distributed, median and its statistical characteristics are given. 6. For sets of data with anomalous skewness, logarithmic and lambda transformations are useful approaches.

Additional Analytical Data for Gabbro, GOG-1

Additional data for gabbro, GOG-1, were determined by instrumental-neutron-activation analysis, atomic-absorption spectrometry, and semi-quantitative spectrographic analysis. F ratios calculated in the analysis of variance for 26 sets of data for elements determined by the three methods were not significant, and hence the elements are distributed homogeneously among the bottles. The agreement between our data and the averages previously published ranges from very good to poor. More analytical data are necessary to establish reliable estimates of the concentrations of elements in GOG-1 and in two other gabbros so that three gabbros may be available to geochemists for use as standards.

Evaluation of In Situ Heterogeneity of Elements in Solids: Implications for Analytical Geochemistry

A general method for the evaluation of in situ heterogeneity of geochemical materials is described and the significance of the results discussed, by using three case studies and earlier data sets. The heterogeneity of Pb in soil (expressed as RSD due to sampling, RSD_samp) varies from < 5 to > 100% between different sites, in a way that relates to the mode of deposition of the element. The heterogeneity of an element also varies systematically as a function of the distance scale at some sites. This variation can be modelled using linear regression, accounting for over 90% of the experimental variance, at seven scales over three orders of magnitude. Variation in heterogeneity between elements at the same site, seems to be somewhat diagnostic of the origin of the element, lithogenic being less than anthropogenic, although the later is also being modified by the mode of deposition. Where the heterogeneity is large (RSD > 30%), it is proposed that it can be expressed more accurately as a heterogeneity factor (10^GSDsamp), to reflect its frequency distribution, which is positively skewed towards higher concentration values.

Software Dedicated for the Curation of Geochemical Data Sets in Analytical Laboratories

Software designed for analytical laboratories to guarantee traceability and accessibility of rocks with their geochemical properties has been developed. The software documents the sample origin, current sample location and the location of any sample subsets (e.g., thin sections, solutions, etc.), and archives all associated geochemical data sets. The software can be installed on a personal computer so is available for use in any laboratory and allows curation before and after publication. The software will be of use in integrating and sharing geological reference materials within and among institutes. In this article, the system design and implementation are detailed. All source codes for the software are available at http://dream.misasa.okayama-u.ac.jp/ .     

Reference Materials for Geochemical Studies: New Analytical Data by ICP-MS and Critical Discussion of Reference Values

Abundances of twenty four trace elements, including Y and fourteen rare earth elements (REE), are reported for eighty six geological reference materials and four proficiency testing samples. Analytical data were obtained by ICP-MS using solution nebulisation after mixed acid digestion (HF-HClO₄) under pressure. Analysed samples cover a wide range of element concentrations and mineralogical compositions, including samples for which there are few previously published data. Precision for elemental determinations in nearly 90% of the samples analysed is better than 5%. Accuracy, estimated by comparison with data from compilations is better than 6% for well characterized reference materials. Results obtained for samples that are low in trace elements are often significantly lower than compiled reference values. A critical discussion of the compiled data sets, especially for Y and the REEs, indicates that some reference values seem to be erroneous.

A Combined Analytical and Numerical Approach for the Evaluation of Radial Loads on the Lining of Vertical Shafts

The evaluation of the load acting on a shaft support is of fundamental importance for the correct dimensioning of the structure. The load acting on the support can appear somewhat complex. One approach to define the load on the lining may be to use the convergence-confinement method (CCM) normally used in the tunneling design. This process involves intersecting the convergence-confinement (CC) curve with the support reaction line. However, in order to be able to adopt this technique, it is necessary to know the radial displacement of the shaft wall at the point in which the support is to be installed. Using the equations of Vlachopoulos and Diederichs (Rock Mech Rock Eng 42:131–146, 2009) the reaction line of the support can be calculated. Numerical models developed with Flac 2D v.6.0 considering the Mohr–Coulomb criterion and an ideal elasto-plastic behavior simulating stepwise excavation and support installation were developed. The relation between applied internal stress and radial displacement of the wall shaft, obtained by the numerical simulation was compared with the CC curve obtained by the CCM and it showed a good match between the two methods. However, an iterative procedure has also been used to insert the reaction line in the CC graph. The result shows lower initial displacements (and therefore greater radial stress) when compared with the values obtained by numerical calculation with the axisymmetric model. It is therefore recommended the combined use of the CCM (analytical method) and the axisymmetric numerical model (step by step simulation) to obtain the values of the final load on the lining and the final plastic radius, necessary for the correct design of supporting structures on the shaft wall.     

1998 Compilation of Analytical Data for Five GSJ Geochemical Reference Samples: The "Instrumental Analysis Series"

Analytical data for five GSJ (Geological Survey of Japan) reference samples, the "Instrumental analysis series" received by October 1998, are compiled. The data reported in publications and personal communications were evaluated statistically, taking into account the analytical method and sample preparation. Based on the selected available data, recommended and preferred values for fourteen major and fifty one minor and trace elements are proposed.
