Key Points Measurement of 86Sr at count rates < 1500 cps can result in statistical bias. Non‐linear signals in analogue detection mode (e.g., Rb) present a challenge for accurately dating high 87Rb/86Sr mica (> 1000). Accounting for these considerations, high 87Rb/86Sr mica are dated here with accuracies of ∼ 1%.

The influence of strontium content and sintering temperature on monazite stability [PDF]
This paper shows a simple way to synthesize a series of Ce1-xSrxPO4 ceramic materials using acetate solutions of Ce and Sr instead of nitrate which were used so far.

Key Points 7 μm spot‐diameter LA‐MC‐ICP‐MS analyses yield accurate zircon U‐Pb ages. 1013 Ω amplifier resistors improve low‐signal Pb measurements. Saturn correction protocols minimise down‐hole fractionation effects. We present a systematic evaluation of high spatial‐resolution zircon U‐Pb dating using a Thermo Scientific Neoma multi‐collector ICP‐MS ...

REE-bearing minerals in the Rapakavi Grante, Southern Finland
The studied rock samples belong to the classic1615–1645 Ma Wiborg Rapakivi granite terrane of southeasternFinland. Geochemical studies show that the rapakivigranites and associated rocks form metaluminousto peraluminous A-type granites and plot in the ...

Can we make a more inexpensive and greener coating using naturally forming minerals? Xenotime mineral composition was determined to be (Y0.80Gd0.04Dy0.07Er0.05Yb0.04)PO4. Preliminary studies into REPO4 species showed compatable CTE match with SiC, formation of a multilayer reaction product that improves CMAS resistance, and parabolic growth rates ...

High-temperature thermal plasma treatment of monazite followed by aqueous digestion [PDF]
Monazite is a chemically inert, radioactive phosphate mineral that contains the light rare earth metals (Ce, La, Nd, Pr and Y), thorium and uranium. A new process, which improves the extraction efficiency of monazite, is under development.

SYNTAXY OF TITANITE, AEGIRINE AND ECKERMANNITE IN ALKALI SYENITE PEGMATITES OF THE VISHNEVYE MOUNTAINS (SOUTH URALS) [PDF]
Crystallographic orientation of titanite intergrowths with aegirine and eckermannite was found in alkali syenite pegmatites of the Vishnevye Mountains: the titanite face ( 1 11) is parallel to pyroxene and amphibole face (010) and the titanite face (110)
