We report experiments on optimisation of LA-ICP-MS mapping as a tool for visualising and quantifying internal structure of trace element concentration in igneous minerals. The experimental design was refined with maps on clinopyroxene and... more
The origin of salinity in crustal fluids can be deduced from their Cl, Br and Na concentrations and associated Cl/Br and Na/Br ratios. Here, a protocol for quantitative analysis of Cl, Br and Na concentration in individual fluid... more
Apatite is an important common U-and Th-bearing accessory mineral in igneous, metamorphic and clastic sed-imentary rocks. The advent of in situ U–Th–Pb apatite geochronology by the SIMS and LA-(MC)-ICP-MS methods has demonstrated the... more
The Western Irish Namurian Basin (WINB) preserves classic examples of basin floor sequences through to slope deposits and deltaic cyclothems. Despite over 50 years of research into the WINB, its sediment provenance remains highly... more
Uranium deposits form in a wide range of geological settings, including deep magmatic to surficial conditions, and range in age from Archaean to recent. These temporal and spatial variations have given rise to an extreme diversity of ore... more
"Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to analyze the individual chambers from tests of foraminiferal fossil and plankton tow Globigerinoides ruber from the southwest Pacific Ocean, from latitudes 3°S to... more
Laser ablation coupled to a multi-collector inductively coupled mass spectrometer (LA-MC-ICP-MS) is a promising tool for in situ analysis of metal and metalloid stable isotope ratios. Potential isotopic fractionation associated with laser... more
Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was used to analyze the individual chambers from tests of foraminiferal fossil and plankton tow Globigerinoides ruber from the southwest Pacific Ocean, from latitudes 3° S to 42°... more
The processes by which Athenian black- and red-figure vases were produced appear to be well understood, with text-books regularly offering succinct descriptions of levigation, the application of relief line, and the three-stage firing... more
