粉末压片制样-X射线荧光光谱法分析地球化学调查样品测量条件的优化

在X射线荧光光谱(XRF)分析中,粉末压片制样是被广泛应用的一种制样方法,但由于存在样品粒度、矿物和基体效应对其测量条件进行优化。本文应用XRF法测量地球化学调查样品中24种主次量元素,综合优化了制样压力、仪器工作电压和工作电流、待测元素分析谱线、探测器的调节和探测效率等实验条件。在最优测量条件下,用土壤和水系沉积物国家标准物质GBW07402、GBW07404、GBW07424、GBW07426、GBW07429验证方法的准确度,结果表明个别元素如GBW07402中的Na2O、GBW07404中的Pb相对误差大于10%,其余元素的相对误差小于10%,但均达到了地球化学调查样品的质量监控要求。经优化的仪器测量条件为我国地球化学调查样品提供了可靠的基础数据。     

X射线荧光光谱法分析地质样品的应用技巧

X射线荧光光谱法(XRF)具有制样简单、绿色环保、可同时测定多个元素等特点,被广泛应用于勘查地球化学分析领域中,其中粉末压片XRF是快速经济的主导方法。然而在大批量实际样品测试中,如果分析者选择测量条件不当或者校正标准曲线不合理,就会导致测量结果的粗大误差甚至测出不合逻辑的数据。本文对地质样品中的主要元素在测试中容易出现的技术问题作一具体分析:以钒元素为例,用实验说明探测器的选择对于测量结果的重要性,采用SC探测器可将V Kα线与Ti Kβ线分开,而采用SC+PC探测器两元素的谱线发生重叠;以硅酸盐中铁元素为例,描述了不同的回归标准曲线对测量结果的影响;对地质样品中低含量铌、钽的测定,标准曲线要根据实际情况合理回归,并将测试后的样品与化学方法对照,结果相符。同时提出了硅酸盐、碳酸盐等地质样品的测量问题。对于土壤、水系沉积物、岩石地质样品,一些元素之间会产生相互干扰,以常见的造岩元素钛为例,用实验证明铝和铁对钛的谱线确实有增强和吸收效应;对于常见的碳酸盐类样品,氯和铬的测量要考虑氧化钙的吸收增强效应,必须添加氧化钙作为其吸收增强校正项,才能保证测量结果可靠。针对硫元素的测定,除了受到硫赋存状态的影响,样品污染问题也是影响因素之一,需要避免空气、实验室环境以及分析过程中对样品的污染。本文针对一些典型元素XRF分析提出的具体测量方案,应用于实际地质样品测试可以获得满意的效果。

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Quaternary stresses revealed by calcite twinning inversion: insights from observations in the Savonnières underground quarry (eastern France)

Calcite samples were extracted both from the rock matrix and the superficial coating of a karstified fault plane of an underground quarry, located in the eastern border of the Paris basin. The karstification is dated as Quaternary. Analysis of mechanical calcite twinning reveals that only the calcite matrix has also undergone a compression trending WNW that can be attributed to the Mio-Pliocene alpine collision. Both coating and matrix have undergone a strike-slip regime with σ₁ roughly trending north–south, that could correspond to the regional present-day state of stress, a strike-slip compression rather trending NNW, modified by local phenomena.
