Key Points Mass fractions for eight volatile elements (Cu, Zn, Ga, Ag, Cd, In, Sn and Tl) in 21 geological reference materials by ID‐Q‐ICP‐MS are reported. Target elements were chemically separated with a novel anion‐exchange chromatography. The intermediate precision (2s) of 2–4 replicates was < 4% and results agree with literature data.
