过氧化氢在黄铁矿的溶解过程中对铼-锇信号强度及年龄的影响

对黄铁矿在高温高压密闭的Carius管溶解过程中出现的黄色沉淀物进行了定性研究。在黄铁矿中加入少量的辉钼矿及185Re和190Os混合稀释剂,在常规的逆王水溶矿过程中加入适量H2O2,用ICP-MS检测,研究了H2O2对Re、Os信号强度变化及同位素交换平衡产生的影响。结果表明,在黄铁矿溶解过程中出现的黄色沉淀物为羟基硫酸铁(FeOHSO4)而不是单质硫,它是由于密闭的Carius管内氧化性不够而生成的。H2O2的加入对ICP-MS测定Re信号强度没有影响,而对Os则有显著的改善,但这种改善并未影响到加入的185Re和190Os稀释剂与样品中的Re和Os达到同位素交换平衡,因而也不影响到样品的Re、Os含量及最终的Re-Os同位素年龄计算。

The simultaneous determination of rhenium and osmium in rocks by neutron activation analysis

A neutron activation method is described for the determination of rhenium and osmium in rocks. Radiochemical separations, by carrier techniques, are carried out using anion-exchange and solvent extraction procedures. The results obtained for two molybdenites and the standard rocks G-I and W-I are compared with other published values.     

Methods for the separation of rhenium, osmium and molybdenum applicable to isotope geochemistry

Effective methods are described for the chemical separation of rhenium, osmium and molybdenum. The methods are based on distillation and anion-exchange chromatography, and have been the basis for rhenium-osmium isotope studies of ore deposits and meteorites. Successful anion-exchange separation of osmium requires both recognition and careful control of the osmium species in solution; thus, distillation of osmium tetroxide from a mixture of sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide is preferred to anion-exchange. Distribution coefficients measured for perrhenate in sulfuric acid media are sufficiently high (K(d) > 500) for rhenium to be directly loaded onto an ion-exchange column from a distillation residue and subsequently eluted with nitric acid. Polymerization of molybdenum species during elution is prevented by use of a solution that is 1M in hydrochloric acid and 1M in sodium chloride.     

Mass spectrometric isotopic and trace analysis of187Os

The application of mass spectrometric methods in the determination of isotopic abundance and of trace elements in highly enriched¹⁸⁷Os is described. The capability of ICP-MS in comparison with solid-state mass spectrometric techniques (SIMS, SNMS and GDMS) for the precise isotopic analysis of highly-enriched osmium has been investigated. The formation of cluster ions in several plasma types has been measured, and the problems of possible interferences from molecular and cluster ions is discussed.     

Determination of Rhenium in Geological Samples by Isotope Dilution–Multicollector–Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry with Novel Chromatographic Separation

A method was developed to determine rhenium contents in geological samples using multicollector–inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (MC–ICP-MS) and extraction with an ion-exchange resin. Samples were digested in Carius tubes and osmium was converted into volatile OsO₄, which was purified by distillation and microdistillation. The purified Os contents and isotopic ratios were determined using negative thermal ionization mass spectrometry. After the distillation of Os, the samples were treated with HF, then 1.2?M HCl, and loaded on ion-exchange resin columns. Re was eluted using 0.75?M HNO₃ and directly determined by MC–ICP-MS. This method was validated using a series of reference materials and the analytical Re data are consistent with the literature values. This method precision (relative standard deviation) ranged from 0.8 to 6%. The procedural blank and detection limit (3σ) of Re were 1.1 pg and 0.5 pg/g (for a sample size of 2g), respectively. These results indicate that the proposed method can be applied to determine trace Re in geological samples. Using Carius tube digestion combined with HF desilicification and redissolution, the Re and Os contents found in the soluble and insoluble phases of several reference materials indicated that the distributions of Re and Os were homogeneous and heterogeneous, respectively.     

Simplified method for the Re-Os dating of molybdenite using acid digestion and isotope dilution ICP-MS

An analytical method was developed for Os-Re dating of molybdenite. The method is based on determination of Os and Re concentrations in molybdenite by isotope dilution inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID-ICP-MS). Sample digestion and sample/spike equilibration were achieved by a two-stage autoclave-based procedure using a mixture of nitric and sulphuric acids. Os was separated from the sample digest by modified single-stage distillation of osmium tetraoxide (OsO₄) using elevated temperature and on-line addition of hydrogen peroxide. OsO₄(g) was trapped in a mixture of 0.05% thiourea in 0.05 M sodium hydroxide. An anion-exchange column was used to separate Re from excess Mo in the solution remaining after distillation. Os and Re isotope ratio measurements were performed by single-collector, double focusing inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with on-line mass-bias correction. Typical instrumental precision was in the range 0.02-0.2% relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) depending on the analyte concentrations. Notorious Os memory effects in the ICP-MS introduction system were eliminated using 5% ammonia solution, both as matrix for final dilution of the trap mixture as well as for washing between the samples. The reproducibility of the entire analytical procedure was accessed by replicate dating of two molybdenite standards and three molybdenite separates, and was found to be in the range 0.87-1.52% R.S.D. Though accuracy of the method is limited by difficulties in evaluating exact concentration of Os in spike solution, ages obtained in the course of these work agrees well with previously published data.     

Study of osmium and ruthenium distillation with radioactive tracers

The distillation characteristics of osmium and ruthenium, which have been studied by using both radioactive tracers and inactive compounds, are reported. The tracer solutions were prepared from hexachloro and hexabromo compounds and from the purified sponges of both metals. A quantitative separation of osmium from ruthenium can be made by distillation from peroxide-sulphuric acid solution at 110 degrees for about 40 min. Slow and incomplete distillations are observed when osmium is present as either the chloro or bromo complex. Optimum conditions for the dissolution of acid-insoluble materials containing osmium and ruthenium are discussed.     

Extraction et dosage de traces de rhénium,en particulier dans les molybdénites

A simple solution to the difficult problem of the separation and determination of traces of rhenium contained in molybdenites is suggested. After the preliminary attack of the cres, rhenium is extracted quantitatively between, pH 8 and pH 9 by chloroform in the form of tetraphenylarsonium perrhenate. In this pH region the molybdenum remains in the aqueous phase.Calculation has allowed the determination of favourable conditions for the extraction of perrhenates by tetraphenylarsonium chloride and chloroform. Practical results are in satisfactory agreement with theory.The extracted rhenium, after conversion to the ions ReO₄^- in acid solution, is determined colorimetrically by reaction with thiocyanate and stannous chloride.By applying the method described it is possible to isolate and determine rhenium in molybdenites when the weight ratio rhenium/ore ecxeeds 10^-7.     

Isotope ratio determination in microgram levels of osmium by deuteron activation analysis

We have demonstrated the feasibility of determining isotope ratios in very small samples of osmium by deuteron activation in the Livermore Tandem Van de Graaff accelerator. The method involves determination of cross-section ratios by using several osmium isotope mixtures carefully prepared from electromagnetically-enriched osmium isotopes. The accuracy of this method was checked by a determination of the isotope ratios in naturally-occurring osmium. Our analysis demonstrated that an osmium specimen removed from a sample of commercial grade perrhenic acid contained only 0.4% natural osmium, the rest being radiogenic¹⁸⁷Os.Work performed under the auspices of the U. S. Department of Energy by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract W-7405-Eng-48.     

Determination of (187)Os in molybdenite by ICP-MS with neutron-induced (186)Os and (188)Os spikes

The article describes a method for the determination of (187)Os in molybdenite by isotope dilution inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ID-ICP-MS) with neutron-induced (186)Os and (188)Os spike. The spike used in the present work was prepared in line with the principle by which artificial nuclides are produced in a nuclear reaction. The concentration and isotopic composition of osmium in the prepared spike were evaluated accurately with the isotope dilution method, using negative thermal ion mass spectrometry (N-TIMS). The advantage of this method is that using (186)Os and (188)Os double spikes can effectively compensate for the mass discrimination effects of ICP-MS. Thus, the common correction practice for mass bias in the isotope dilution method with a single spike is unnecessary. In addition, the method enables one to reduce the determined error arising from instrumental instability. The precision for the (187)Os/((186)Os+(188)Os) ratio was approximately 2% (2sigma, RSD), but in the case of (187)Os/(186)Os, (187)Os/(188)Os and (186)Os/(188)Os, precision ranged from 2.0 to 8% (2sigma, RSD). The results for (187)Os concentration in a molybdenite sample determined with this method showed good agreement with reference values.
