Abstract LA-ICP-MS and LA-MC-ICP-MS have been the techniques of choice for achieving
accurate and precise element content and isotopic ratio, the state-of-the-art technique …

Trace elements in pyrite are increasingly being used in ore deposit exploration as a
geochemical pathfinder to ore. This is because the trace element systematics of pyrite are …

Orbital data indicate that the youngest volcanic units on the Moon are basalt lavas in
Oceanus Procellarum, a region with high levels of the heat-producing elements potassium …

Mare volcanics on the Moon are the key record of thermo-chemical evolution throughout
most of lunar history,–. Young mare basalts—mainly distributed in a region rich in …

Here we describe an internal standard-independent calibration strategy for LA-ICP-MS
analysis of anhydrous minerals and glasses. Based on the normalization of the sum of all …

There is extensive geologic evidence of ancient volcanic activity on the Moon, but it is
unclear how long that volcanism persisted. Magma fountains produce volcanic glasses …

The chemical composition, textures and mineral associations of pyrite provide key
information that help elucidate the evolution of hydrothermal systems. However, linking the …

Calcium silicate perovskite, CaSiO3, is arguably the most geochemically important phase in
the lower mantle, because it concentrates elements that are incompatible in the upper …

We present new analytical data of major and trace elements for the geological MPI‐DING
glasses KL2‐G, ML3B‐G, StHs6/80‐G, GOR128‐G, GOR132‐G, BM90/21‐G, T1‐G, and …

Lunar impact glasses can provide important information on the bulk compositions of their
sources and the impact history of the Moon. Here, we report the chemical composition of fifty …
