Evaluation of Error Propagation in Lead Isotope Analysis of Ancient Melt Inclusions by LA-MC-ICP-MS
Determination of Pb isotopes in melt inclusions by Laser Ablation -Multiple Collector-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (LA-MC-ICP-MS) is limited to samples formed later than Mesozoic because U and Th signals are not monitored.

Precise and accurate isotopic analysis of microscopic uranium-oxide grains using LA-MC-ICP-MS [PDF]
Uranium isotope (235U, 236U, 238U) ratios were determined for microscopic uranium-oxide grains using laser-ablation multi-collector inductively-coupled-plasma mass-spectrometry (LA-MC-ICP-MS). The grains were retrieved from contaminated soil and dust samples.

In situ boron isotope measurements of natural geological materials by LA-MC-ICP-MS
There are two main methods to determine boron isotopic composition. One is the solution method, in which boron is purified after the samples are dissolved in solution and the boron isotope ratios are determined by thermal ionization mass spectrometry (P-TIMS and N-TIMS) or multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS).

In situ lithium and boron isotope determinations in mica, pyroxene, and serpentine by LA-MC-ICP-MS [PDF]
Boron and Li are light, incompatible elements that preferentially partition into the liquid phase, whether melt or aqueous fluid, and thus are useful for tracking fluid-related processes in rocks. Most of the Li isotopic data presently available on subduction-related rocks are from whole-rock analyses; and the B isotopic analyses of subduction material
