Determination of trace element profiles in coarse-grained minerals by external millibeam PIXE - A schorl tourmaline study [PDF]
The thick-target PIXE technique was applied to direct analysis of trace elements in tourmaline minerals. Analyses of these minerals with conventional wet-chemical methods are difficult and time consuming.

Three Spodumene Reference Materials for Oxygen Isotope Measurement by Ion Microprobe
Key Points Three spodumene reference materials were developed for SIMS oxygen isotope measurement. All three materials are homogeneous in oxygen isotopes. Crystal orientation has no effect on instrumental mass fractionation. This study reports on the development of three spodumene reference materials referred to as Curtin University (CU) Tri‐1, Kun‐A‐1

The Effect of Crystal Orientation on In Situ Rb‐Sr Mica Geochronology
Key Points No significant effect of mica grain orientation on Rb‐Sr date. Rb‐Sr laser signal stability is generally better perpendicular to mica c‐axis. No significant matrix effect noted between different mica group members. Mica crystals have a highly asymmetric structure, arranged in sheets of two tetrahedral layers bonded to a single octahedral ...

Key Points New natural high REE/Hf zircon reference material for in situ Hf isotopic measurement. Hf isotope ratio is independent of zircon textural domains. Stable Hf isotope ratio despite Pb and REE variability. Accurate measurements of Hf isotope ratios in zircon rely on adequate correction for isobaric interferences, which increase in complexity as

Kunzite from the Haapaluoma pegmatite quarry, western Finland [PDF]
A purple transparent crystal of spodumene, or kunzite, was encountered in the Haapaluoma feldspar quarry, western Finland. The crystal, which is about seven centimetres long, is embedded in purple, fine-scaled lepidolite.

The Tectonic, Thermal, and Temporal Controls on the Production of Lithium‐Enriched Melts
Abstract We present a new tectonically‐based method for understanding the mountain‐belt‐scale controls on the distribution of critical metals, applied to lithium ores. Lithium‐rich melts in collisional zones are produced by biotite‐breakdown reactions, so we analyze the tectonic “filters” that control whether underthrusting (meta‐)sediments reach ...
