Development and Re‐Evaluation of Tourmaline Reference Materials for In Situ Measurement of Boron δ Values by Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry

Six tourmaline samples were investigated as potential reference materials (RMs) for boron isotope measurement by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The tourmaline samples are chemically homogeneous and cover a compositional range of tourmaline supergroup minerals (primarily Fe, Mg and Li end‐members). Additionally, they have homogeneous boron delta values with intermediate precision values during SIMS analyses of less than 0.6‰ (2s). These samples were compared with four established tourmaline RMs, that is, schorl IAEA‐B‐4 and three Harvard tourmalines (schorl HS#112566, dravite HS#108796 and elbaite HS#98144). They were re‐evaluated for their major element and boron delta values using the same measurement procedure as the new tourmaline samples investigated. A discrepancy of about 1.5‰ in δ¹¹B was found between the previously published reference values for established RMs and the values determined in this study. Significant instrumental mass fractionation (IMF) of up to 8‰ in δ¹¹B was observed for schorl–dravite–elbaite solid solutions during SIMS analysis. Using the new reference values determined in this study, the IMF of the ten tourmaline samples can be modelled by a linear combination of the chemical parameters FeO + MnO, SiO₂ and F. The new tourmaline RMs, together with the four established RMs, extend the boron isotope analysis of tourmaline towards the Mg‐ and Al‐rich compositional range. Consequently, the in situ boron isotope ratio of many natural tourmalines can now be determined with an uncertainty of less than 0.8‰ (2s).

Determination of Mercury in Thirty‐three International Stream Sediment and Soil Reference Samples by Direct Mercury Analyser

Mercury was determined in thirty‐three international stream sediment and soil reference samples (eleven Chinese soils, GSS‐1 to GSS‐11; twelve Chinese stream sediments, GSD‐1A to GSD‐12; four Canadian stream sediments STSD‐1 to STSD‐4; South African stream sediments, SARM‐42, SARM‐46 and SARM‐47; Japanese stream sediments, JSd‐1 to JSd‐3) by direct mercury analyser. Samples were taken in 500 μl quartz boats, placed in an auto sampler and processed (drying time 60 s at 300 °C; decomposition time 120 s at 850 °C; waiting time 45 s). The instrument was calibrated in the low (0‐50 ng) and high ranges (50‐500 ng) with two reference materials GSS‐5 and GXR‐2 (USGS). Using the calibration line, reference samples were analysed for Hg. The results of the determinations agreed with the recommended values of RMs in all cases except JSd‐1. The RSD calculated for the RMs was found to be within 20%. The detection limit was 1 ng g^?1.

Reference samples for use in analytical geochemistry: their availability, preparation, and appropriate use

A large number of certified and other reference samples are available for use in analytical geochemistry. Certified materials are preferred, but of much more limited availability than other reference samples for most geochemical applications. The availability of rock, sediment, soil, water, and plant reference samples is outlined; ore and mineral separate reference samples are not included in the discussion. The preparation of these materials, including the establishment of certified or recommended concentrations, is then reviewed. It is shown that comparable quality can be achieved for both certified and recommended concentrations, though it has not always been achieved in the past. Finally, the most appropriate ways to use reference samples in quality control and instrumental calibration are discussed.     

Boron Isotopic Analysis of Proposed Borosilicate Mineral Reference Samples

This brief contribution presents new boron isotopic data for a set of proposed borosilicate reference minerals, most of which are described in the companion paper by Dyar et al.²⁰⁰¹. The results for a variety of minerals (tourmalines, danburite, prismatine, serendibite, ferroaxinite and a Li mica) show that it is generally possible to reproduce the ¹¹ B/¹⁰ B ratio within ± 0.5 per mil with replicate chemistry and mass spectrometry over long time spans. Because the accuracy of boron isotopic analysis is commonly determined by reference to secondary standards, it is suggested that some of the samples used in this study be adopted for interlaboratory comparisons and for quality control on boron isotopic analyses produced by a variety of analytical methods.     

Boron and Oxygen Isotope Composition of Certified Reference Materials NIST SRM 610/612 and Reference Materials JB-2 and JR-2

We present data on the concentration, the isotope composition and the homogeneity of boron in NIST silicate glass reference materials SRM 610 and SRM 612, and in powders and glasses of geological reference materials JB-2 (basalt) and JR-2 (rhyolite). Our data are intended to serve as references for both microanalytical and wet-chemical techniques. The δ¹¹ B compositions determined by N-TIMS and P-TIMS agree within 0.5% and compare with SIMS data within 2.5%. SIMS profiles demonstrate boron isotope homogeneity to better than δ¹¹ B = 2% for both NIST glasses, however a slight boron depletion was detected towards the outermost 200 μm of the rim of each sample wafer. The boron isotope compositions of SRM 610 and SRM 612 were indistinguishable. Glasses produced in this study by fusing JB-2 and JR-2 powder also showed good boron isotope homogeneity, both within and between different glass fragments. Their major element abundance as well as boron isotope compositions and concentrations were identical to those of the starting composition. Hence, reference materials (glasses) for the in situ measurement of boron isotopes can be produced from already well-studied volcanic samples without significant isotope fractionation. Oxygen isotope ratios, both within and between wafers, of NIST reference glasses SRM 610 and SRM 612 are uniform. In contrast to boron, significant differences in oxygen isotope compositions were found between the two glasses, which may be due to the different amounts of trace element oxides added at ten-fold different concentration levels to the silicate matrix.

Available Clay and Feldspar Reference Samples As Standards for Archaeological Pottery Studies

The available clay and feldspar reference samples, rather than the frequently used rock reference samples, are suggested as standards for archaeological pottery studies because their trace-element contents are more like those of the artefacts. Such samples may provide a basis for correlating archaeological studies throughout the world. The assumption that bottles of such reference samples should have homogeneous trace-element contents because of the nature of the materials has been confirmed by the analysis of variance of trace -element data by instrumental neutron activation analysis.     

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.     

Precise and Accurate Determination of Lu and Hf Contents,and Hf Isotopic Compositions in Chinese Rock Reference Materials by MC‐ICP‐MS

In this contribution, we report Hf isotopic data and Lu and Hf mass fractions for thirteen Chinese rock reference materials (GBW07 103–105, 109–113 and 121–125, that is GSR 1–3, 7–11 and 14–18, respectively) that span a broad compositional range. Powdered samples were spiked with a ¹⁷⁶Lu‐¹⁸⁰Hf enriched tracer and completely digested using conventional HF, HNO₃ and HClO₄ acid dissolution protocols. Fluoride salts were dissolved during a final H₃BO₃ digestion, and chemical purification was performed using a single Ln resin. All measurements were carried out on a MC‐ICP‐MS. This work provides the first comprehensive report of the Lu‐Hf isotopic composition of Chinese geochemical rock reference materials, and results indicate that they are of comparable quality to the well‐characterised and widely used USGS and GSJ rock reference materials.     

DETERMINATION OF TRACE ELEMENTS IN 11 CHINESE GEOLOGICAL REFERENCE MATERIALS BY ICP-MS

More than 40 trace elements in 11 Chinese geological reference materials (stream sediments) GSD-1 to GSD-7 and GSD-9 to GSD-12 were determined by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Open acid digestions were used to prepare samples for the determination of most elements. However, for the measurement of Y, Zr and Hf, it was found necessary to use an alkali fusion in order to make fully quantitative measurements. The results obtained in this work are generally in good agreement with the recommended values from the sub-ppm level to > several hundred ppm and illustrate the versatility of the technique, particularly for some less well characterised elements.     

Some Trace Element Contents of Three Chinese Gold Reference Samples

Values for gold in a series of three reference samples selected from Gueizhou Province, China, were recommended by the Institute of Mineral Comprehensive Survey, Zhengzhou Department, in June 1986. Because of the large amount (1360 to 2600 Kg) of the three samples collected, the contents of 26 elements other than gold were determined to see if the large samples might also serve as general geochemical reference samples.
