To distinguish Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations in tributaries of the Connecticut River, we studied the incorporation and stability of Sr isotopes in juvenile salmon. We established the geologic basis for unique isotopic signatures in 29 salmon sites. Stream-specific Sr isotopic ratios (87Sr/86Sr) were found in calcified tissues of salmon parr within 3 months of stocking. We found little seasonal variation in the Sr signatures of stream water or fish tissue. There were no significant differences among the Sr signatures of otoliths, scales, and vertebrae. For mature salmon raised under constant conditions, 70% of the Sr isotopic signature in calcified tissues was derived from food sources. We developed a criterion for identifying moving fish based upon the isotopic variability of genetically marked fish. Applying this criterion to our streams, 7% of the fish in our study had incorporated Sr from multiple streams. Strontium isotopes distinguished all 8 regions in the White River basin and 7 of the 10 regions in the West River basin. When watersheds are considered together, Sr isotopes differentiated 11 unique signatures from 18 regions. We conclude that Sr isotopes are an effective marking tool and discuss ways in which they can be combined with other marking techniques over larger spatial scales.

Transgenerational isotopic marking has been recognised as an efficient tool for mass marking of high numbers of fish larvae by injecting female spawners with enriched isotope solutions. So far, mainly enriched stable barium isotopes have been applied for this purpose. Here, we present an alternative approach for individual-specific transgenerational marking using strontium 86Sr/84Sr double spikes. Four isotonic double-spike solutions with different molar fractions of 86Sr and 84Sr and different total Sr concentrations were administered to four female spawners of common carp, Cyprinus carpio, L., by intraperitoneal injection, and one additional female spawner was injected a blank isotonic solution as control. Otoliths (lapilli) were sampled from juvenile offspring and analysed for their Sr isotopic composition by laser ablation–multi collector–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry. Central otolith regions of the progeny of female carps treated with concentrations of at least 0.45 mg 84Sr kg–1 bodyweight and 2.28 mg 86Sr kg–1 bodyweight showed a significant shift of the absolute 88Sr/86Sr and 88Sr/84Sr isotope ratios from the natural baseline. Isotope pattern deconvolution was successfully applied for the identification of the originally injected 86Sr/84Sr molar fraction ratios of the individual double spikes. Enriched stable Sr isotope double spikes represent an important alternative to enriched stable Ba isotopes for transgenerational marking, especially in freshwater systems.

Thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) can provide highly accurate strontium (Sr), neodymium (Nd), and lead (Pb) isotope measurements for geological and environmental samples. Traces of these isotopes are useful for understanding crustal reworking and growth. In this study, we conducted a sequential separation of Sr, Nd, and Pb and subsequently measured the 87Sr/86Sr, 143Nd/144Nd, 206Pb/204Pb, 207Pb/204Pb, and 208Pb/204Pb ratios of 13 widely used rock certified reference materials (CRMs), namely BCR-2, BHVO-2, GSP-2, JG-1a, HISS-1, JLk-1, JSd-1, JSd-2, JSd-3, LKSD-1, MAG-1, SGR-1, and 4353A, using TIMS. In particular, we reported the first isotopic ratios of Sr, Nd, and Pb in 4353A, Sr and Nd in HISS-1 and SGR-1, and Sr in JLk-1, JSd-2, JSd-3, and LKSD-1. The Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic compositions of most in-house CRMs were indistinguishable from previously reported values, although the Sr and Pb isotopic ratios of GSP-2, JSd-2, JSd-3, and LKSD-1 obtained in different aliquots and/or batches varied slightly. Hence, these rock reference materials can be used for monitoring the sample accuracy and assessing the quality of Sr–Nd–Pb isotope analyses.

AbstractThis work evaluates the use of femtosecond laser ablation multiple collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (fs-LA-MC-ICP-MS) for Zr isotopic analysis in zircons. The mass fractionation caused by instrumental mass discrimination was corrected by a combination of internal correction using Sr as an internal standard (coming from a NIST SRM 987 standard solution) and external correction using a matrix-matched standard. Several important instrument parameters were investigated, such as the effect of the addition of N2 and “wet” plasma condition, the mass fractionation behaviors between Zr isotopes and Sr isotopes, the position effect in laser ablation cell and the effect of laser ablation parameters (laser spot size and energy density). The Zr isotope compositions of seven zircons (GJ-1, 91500, Plešovice, Rak-17, Paki, Aus and Mala) were determined by the developed fs-LA-MC-ICP-MS and thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS). Our fs-LA-MC-ICP-MS results for Zr isotope compositions agreed with TIMS analyses within analytical uncertainties, indicating the presented method is a suitable tool to resolve isotopic zoning in natural zircons. The results also suggest that GJ-1, 91500, Plešovice, Paki, Aus and Mala had the homogenous Zr isotope composition and could be considered as the potential candidates for the Zr isotope analysis in zircons, except Rak-17 which presented the large Zr isotope variation.

Strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) are routinely used to determine sources and mixing relationships in geochemical studies. They have proven to be useful in determining weathering processes and quantifying end-member mixing processes. A number of studies highlight that Sr isotopes represent a powerful tool helping to constrain weathering reactions, weathering rates, flow pathways and mixing scenarios, even when inherent differences in weathering rates of different minerals, and mineral heterogeneity in natural environments may cause difficulties in defining the weathering component of different geochemical systems. Nevertheless, Sr isotopes are useful when combined with other chemical data, to constrain models of water–rock interaction and mixing as well as geochemical processes such as weathering. This paper presents basic information about Sr isotopic system, new analytical developments, summary of recent published studies in constraining the weathering processes, and indicates studies similar to weathering in polar regions. The aim of this paper is to present rationale of using Sr isotopes as tracer of weathering processes on James Ross Island, Antarctica.

Lacustrine basins are excellent archives of lake evolution, and deposits record the uplift and weathering histories of the surrounding terrain. The application of Sr isotopes has been tested in several lacustrine basins, both modern and ancient, based on the premise that lakes are well mixed, and shifting Sr isotopes may suggest changes in lake provenance. In the Eocene lacustrine Green River Formation in the Piceance Creek Basin of Colorado, Sr isotope analysis of carbonate mudstones indicates that radiogenic Sr in the center of the Piceance lake decreased during the evolution of the lake, from 52.8–48.4 Ma. Because deposition in the basin center occurred away from the influence of episodic alluvial inflow at the basin margin, Sr isotope evolution in the Piceance lake after basin closure is recorded in the John Savage #24-1 core deposits, not the Anvil Points deposits. Sr isotope analysis of carbonate mudstones at Anvil Points below 55 m shows fluctuating radiogenic Sr values that record episodic inflow from the White River Uplift. This inflow is responsible for the difference in radiogenic Sr trends recorded between the basin center and margin. Above 55 m, fluctuating Sr isotope values at Anvil Points record episodic inflow from the White River Uplift, without inflow of Paleozoic and Mesozoic carbonates. The boundary at 55 m records the hydrologic closure of the Uinta and Piceance lakes around 52 Ma, when lake level lowered beneath the basin sill and the lakes were no longer connected across the Douglas Creek Arch. A significant increase in radiogenic Sr across the 55-m-boundary records this transition from open to closed hydrology, reflecting a loss of dissolved Sr sourced from Paleozoic and Mesozoic carbonates.

ABSTRACT: This contribution describes the successful implementation of in situ Sr isotope analyses by LA-MC-ICP-MS at the CPGeo-USP. The choice for an analytical configuration using measurements of half-masses allows the accurate assessment of lanthanide interferences, permitting the determination of Sr isotopes in important REE-rich accessory phases, such as apatite. Likewise, the on-peak-zero method effectively corrects the background contribution (both from Kr and residual Sr contributions from previous ablations) to the signals of the unknown samples. The analytical campaigns resulted in an accuracy, in respect to reference TIMS values, better than 57 ppm (~ ±0.000057 2σ SD) for a modern coral and the Batjberg clinopyroxene which impart significant quality to our data. Similarly, the majority of the stable Sr isotope ratios are close to the accepted values, which also confirms the effectiveness of the method. The achieved accuracy allows the identification and investigation of spatially-controlled isotopic heterogeneities on the micrometric scale in several Sr-rich minerals (apatite, carbonates, plagioclase, and clinopyroxene) with important implications to the understanding of relevant geochemical processes, particularly AFC, source geochemical heterogeneities and magma-mixing.

This work presents the first use of Sr isotope ratios for determining the provenance of bovine milk from different regions of Slovenia. The analytical protocol for the determination of 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio was optimised and applied to authentic milk samples. Considerable variability of 87Sr/86Sr ratios found in Slovenian milk reflects the substantial heterogeneity of the geological background of its origin. The results, although promising, cannot discount possible inter-annual or annual variation of the Sr isotopic composition of milk. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios of groundwater and surface waters are in good correlation with milk, indicating that the Sr isotopic fingerprint in milk is reflective of cow drinking water. The 87Sr/86Sr ratio has the potential to distinguish between different milk production areas as long as these areas are characterised by geo-lithology. Discriminant analysis (DA) incorporating the elemental composition and stable isotopes of light elements showed that 87Sr/86Sr ratio together with δ13Ccas and δ15Ncas values have the main discrimination power to distinguish the Quaternary group (group 6) from the others. Group 1 (Cretaceous: Carbonate Rocks and Flysch) is associated with Br content, 1/Sr and δ18Ow values. The overall prediction ability was found to be 63.5%. Pairwise comparisons using OPLS-DA confirmed that diet and geologic parameters are important for the separation.

Although Rb/Sr ratio and Sr isotopes are routinely modeled to determine petrogenetic processes and sources for granitic systems, the post-magmatic path and crystallization of Sr in granitic systems have not been thoroughly elucidated to date. In this study, we present the petrography, chemical composition and isotopic 87Sr/86 of Sr-bearing phosphates from the Nanping No. 31 pegmatite in Southeastern China, helping to characterize post-magmatic stages and geochemical recirculation of Sr in granitic systems. K-feldspar and primary apatites occur as major “primary Sr minerals”, the occurrences of secondary Sr phosphates (strontiohurlbutite, palermoite and goyazite) and Sr-rich phosphates (apatites, hurlbutite, bertossaite and fluorarrojadite-(BaNa)) reflect the transport, concentration and recrystallization of Sr in granitic systems. The mobilization and recrystallization of Sr in granitic systems are mainly controlled by the variation in alkalinity of hydrothermal fluids. Two post-magmatic recirculations of Sr are proposed in the Nanping No. 31 pegmatite: (1) breakdown of the “primary Sr mineral” (K-feldspar and primary apatites) and crystallization of secondary Sr-bearing phases; and (2) replacement of secondary Sr-bearing phosphates and direct precipitation of later palermoite and goyazite from later Sr-rich fluids at low temperatures. The Sr isotope features of Sr-bearing phosphates suggest that the emplacement and consolidation processes of the Nanping pegmatite involved the participation of externally derived fluids.

Abstract. The metals strontium (Sr), lithium (Li), osmium (Os) and calcium (Ca), together with their isotopes, are important tracers of weathering and volcanism – primary processes which shape the long-term cycling of carbon and other biogeochemically important elements at the Earth's surface. Traditionally, because of their long residence times in the ocean, isotopic shifts in these four elements observed in the geologic record are almost exclusively interpreted with the aid of isotope-mixing, tracer-specific box models. However, such models may lack a mechanistic description of the links between the cycling of the four metals to other geochemically relevant elements, particularly carbon, or climate. Here we develop and evaluate an implementation of Sr, Li, Os and Ca isotope cycling in the Earth system model cGENIE. The model offers the possibility to study the dynamics of these metal systems alongside other more standard biogeochemical cycles, as well as their relationship with changing climate. We provide examples of how to apply this new model capability to investigate Sr, Li, Os and Ca isotope dynamics and responses to environmental change, for which we take the example of massive carbon release to the atmosphere.

ABSTRACT The Dam Formation in Qatar is a series consisting of calcareous (calcite, dolomite) and evaporitic sediments (gypsum, celestite) that developed under subtidal through supratidal conditions passing towards younger and older series in an environment of deposition more akin to modern beach deposits. In the present study 87Sr/86Sr ratios, δ44/40Ca and δ44/42Ca data are discussed together with δ13C and δ18O values obtained during an environmental analysis carried out previously. Rather uniform isotope curves of the Sr, Ca and O isotopes for tidal deposits are replaced by more oscillating ones when these tidal-influenced regimes became substituted for by a more wave-dominated regime. Calcium isotope ratios still at its infancy and not fully understood seem to provide a new tool in carbonate petrography when it comes to an interpretation of the environment of deposition and calcification of dolomitic series. The Sr isotopes not only indicate an influx of more primitive Sr from the hinterland but also allow for a refinement of the stratigraphy, which yields a late Aquitanian to early Burdigalian age of sedimentation for the Dam Formation in Qatar.

AbstractThis study presents a quantitative sequential radiochemical separation method for the Pu, U, Sr and Am/Cm isotopes with an anion exchange resin, UTEVA resin, Sr resin and DGA resin in environmental samples. After the radionuclides were leached from samples with 8 M HNO3, the Pu, U, Sr and Am/Cm isotopes were sequentially adsorbed on the anion exchange column, UTEVA column connected with Sr Spec column and DGA column. The Pu isotopes were purified from other nuclides through the anion exchange column, and the uranium isotopes were separated from other nuclides through the UTEVA column. Also, 90Sr was separated from other hindrance elements such as Ca2+, Ba2+ and Y3+ with the Sr Spec column. Finally, Am/Cm fractions were purified with the DGA and anion exchange resins. After α source preparation for the purified Pu, U and Am/Cm isotopes with the micro-coprecipitation method, the Pu, U and Am/Cm isotopes were measured by an alpha spectrometry. Strontium-90 was measured by a low level liquid scintillation counter. The radiochemical procedure for Pu, U and Am nuclides investigated in this study has been validated by application to IAEA Reference soils.

The purpose of this study is to identify the major formation processes of the ionic and isotopic composition of chloride brines in the sedimentary basins of the Siberian platform. The object and subject of research are deep-seated strong, very strong and extremely saturated brines as well as their strontium content and the ratio of Sr stable isotopes. The groundwater ionic-salt composition was determined by traditional methods (titrimetric, gravimetric, flame photometry), the 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio was measured using mass-spectrometers (Irkutsk, Russia and Canada). The brines lying at the depth of 1500–3000 m were tapped and classified into saline and subsalt hydrogeological formations. Their feature is high salinity (385–530 g/L) and high content of strontium (2.3–7 g/L). The 87Sr/86Sr isotopic ratio ranges from 0.708 to 0.713062. By isotopic composition most of the brine samples are close to the waters of the Vendian-Cambrian paleoocean. However, some brine samples from the subsalt part of the sedimentary section of the basin are significantly enriched in the isotope 87Sr compared to the paleoocean waters and other samples. It could be due to the substantial input of 87Sr into the brines during the long-term interaction of groundwater with the host Lower Cambrian sandstones.

Nd isotopic composition has been determined for 16 igneous rocks, representing the wide geochemical, spatial and temporal range of post-collisional, late Cenozoic magmas in the Aegean area. Nd isotopes are used to further interpret previously published Pb and Sr isotope data. The overall pattern of late Cenozoic volcanism resulted from rapid extension, with thermal effects causing melting of hydrated, enriched, subcontinental lithosphere to produce widespread K-rich magmas. Slab break-off and intrusion of hot asthenosphere caused partial melting of rift-related continental margin basalts at the detachment point to generate adakitic magmas. Further outboard, mafic magma from enriched lithospheric mantle melted thickened lower crust to produce the granitoid plutons of the Cyclades. Nd isotopic variation in these varied rock types correlates with pre-Cenozoic palaeo-geography. Proterozoic subduction-related enrichment in Th and U, together with other large-ion lithophile elements, produced distinctive Pb isotope composition. This was later modified where Mesozoic subduction of terrigenous sediment was important, whereas subduction of oceanic carbonate sediments produced enrichment in radiogenic Sr and low Ce/Sr ratios. Late Cenozoic magmas sourced in eastern Pelagonian zone sub-continental lithospheric mantle have Nd model ages of about 1.0 Ga, and generally high 87Sr/86Sr and high 207Pb/204Pb (∼ 15.68) and 208Pb/204Pb (∼ 39.0) for low 206Pb/204Pb (∼ 18.6), but rocks to the west have more radiogenic Pb and higher Ce/Sr as a result of greater subduction of terrigenous sediment from the northern Pindos ocean. Magmas sourced from sub-continental lithosphere beneath the Apulian continental block were strongly influenced by subduction of oceanic crust and sediments north of the passive margin of north Africa. Subduction of Nile-derived terrigenous sediment in the east resulted in Nd model ages of 0.7 to 0.8 Ga and radiogenic Pb isotopes. Greater subduction of oceanic carbonate in the west resulted in magmas with higher 87Sr/86Sr and lower Ce/Sr. The strongly negative εNd for adakites in the central Aegean rules out a source from subducted oceanic basalt, and the adakite magma was probably derived from melting of hydrated Triassic sub-alkaline basalt of continental origin. Where trachytic rocks are succeeded by nepheline-normative basalts (e.g. Samos), Nd isotope data imply that early partial melting of the enriched subcontinental lithospheric mantle involved hydrous amphibole and phlogopite, but once these minerals were consumed, younger magmas were produced by partial melting dominated by olivine and orthopyroxene.

The specific source of ancient sedimentary manganese (Mn) deposits is commonly complex. Here we use systematic major and trace element data with strontium (Sr) and neodymium (Nd) isotopic analyses of the Ortokarnash Mn(II) carbonate ores and associated carbonate rocks from the Upper Carboniferous Kalaatehe Formation (ca. 320 Ma) in order to constrain the Mn source. This formation consists of three members: the first member is a volcanic breccia limestone, the second member is a sandy limestone, and the third member is a black marlstone with the Mn(II) carbonate interlayers. Petrographic observations in combination with low Al2O3 (<3.0 wt%) and Hf (<0.40 ppm) contents and the lack of correlations between the Al2O3 and 87Sr/86Sr ratios as well as εNd(t) values demonstrate a negligible influence of terrigenous detrital contamination on both Sr and Nd isotopic compositions of the Mn(II) carbonate ores. The Sr isotopes of Mn(II) carbonate ores are most likely affected by post-depositional alteration, while Nd isotopes remain unaltered. The initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios in the associated carbonate rocks are likely the result of a mixture of the chemical components (i.e., seawater) and the Al-rich components (e.g., volcanoclastic material), while the detrital effects on Nd isotopes are negligible. In addition, both Sr and Nd isotopes in these non-mineralized wall rocks remained unchanged during post-depositional processes. The relatively low Th/Sc ratios and positive εNd(t) values suggest that the aluminosilicate fraction in the calcarenite and sandy limestone was mainly derived from the weathering of a depleted mafic source, representing the riverine input into the seawater. Given that the Mn(II) carbonate ores are characterized by negative εNd(t) values, these suggest that seafloor-vented hydrothermal fluids derived from interaction with the underlying old continental crust mainly contribute to the source of the Mn(II) carbonates.

In our previous study on petrogenesis of quartz syenite and granite porphyry, the host rocks of the Late Mesozoic Shapinggou Mo deposit in the Qinling–Dabie orogenic belt, we found that the initial Sr isotopic composition of the host rocks is strongly affected by the degree of K-alteration. Here, we provide further isotopic evidence of the host rocks and their minerals to investigate the geochemical behaviour of trace elements and isotopes during the alteration and to explain the phenomenon of decoupling of Sr–Nd isotopic composition. The quartz syenite and granite porphyry are altered by K-alteration in varying degrees and have high K2O and Rb contents and low Na2O, CaO, Sr, and Ba contents. Rock samples of both quartz syenite and granite porphyry have variable Rb/Sr ratios and initial 87Sr/86Sr values (even < 0.70) but contain quite homogeneous εNd(t) values (−12.8 to −14.8). Minerals from the rocks of moderate to intense K-alteration have very low initial 87Sr/86Sr values (even < −17), while those from the weakly altered rocks have 87Sr/86Sr(t) values of 0.7044 to 0.7084. The same phenomenon of the decoupling in Sr–Nd isotopic composition can be observed from several Mo deposits within the eastern Qinling–Dabie orogenic belt. This fact suggests similar hydrothermal features and a comparable origin for both the magmatic rocks and hydrothermal fluids in this belt. A comparison between porphyry Mo and porphyry Cu deposits shows that elements and the Rb–Sr isotope system have different behaviours during the K-alteration, implying distinct material sources and igneous rocks for porphyry Mo and porphyry Cu deposits, respectively.

Fluorite is a widespread mineral in porphyry and hydrothermal vein Mo-polymetallic deposits. Here, fluorite is utilised as a probe to trace the fluid source and reveal the fluid evolution process in the Chalukou giant Mo (Pb‒Zn) deposit, Northeast China, which is characterised as early porphyry Mo and later vein-style Zn–Pb mineralisation. A detailed rare earth element (REE) and Sr–Nd isotope study of fluorite combined with Sr isotopes of sphalerite is conducted for the Chalukou deposit. The chondrite-normalised REE patterns of fluorites from molybdenite veins show light REE (LREE)-enriched patterns, with negative Eu anomalies (δEu = 0.60) and weakly negative Y anomalies (Y/Y* = 0.72). The fluorites associated with sphalerite veins exhibit rare earth element (REE)-flat patterns with negative Eu anomalies (δEu = 0.65 to 0.99) and positive Y anomalies (Y/Y* = 1.37 to 3.08). In addition, during the progression from Mo to Zn–Pb mineralisation, the total concentration of REEs decreases from 839 ppm to 53.7 ppm, and Y/Ho ratios increase from 22.1 to 92.5. These features may be explained by the different mobilities of REE complexes during fluid migration. The Eu anomalies are considered to be inherited from source fluids. All the initial 87Sr/86Sr ratios of fluorite and sphalerite are between those of ore-forming porphyries and wall rocks (rhyolite), with fluorite ratios ranging from 0.706942 to 0.707386 and sphalerite ratios varying from 0.705221 to 0.710417. The majority of εNd(t) values of fluorite varying from −6.4 to −3.6 are also located between the ratios exhibited by ore-forming porphyries and rhyolite, whereas three εNd(t) values of fluorites ranging from −0.26 to 0.36 are close to those of ore-forming porphyries. All the isotopic features indicate that the Sr-Nd isotope ratios of hydrothermal fluid are derived from porphyries and disturbed by fluid–rock reactions. Together with a two-stage Sr–Nd isotope mixing model, we suggest that different sources and fluid‒rock interactions (syn-ore intrusions and strata) finally influence the Sr–Nd isotopes of the ore-forming fluids, which are recorded by the majority of fluorite and sphalerite.

Base-metal hydrothermal deposits from the Madan and Laki ore fields in southern Bulgaria are hosted within gneissses and marbles of high-grade metamorphic rocks of the Central Rhodopean metamorphic-core complex. The metamorphic rocks were intruded in the Late Oligocene by rare rhyolitic dykes and are locally overlain by Tertiary conglomerates and large rhyolitic sub-aerial ignimbrites. In this study, Pb isotope analyses for galena and pyrite and Sr isotope analyses for barite from several mines in the Madan and Laki ore fields have been compared to the Pb and Sr isotopes of the metamorphic and igneous rocks to reveal the nature and sources of the ore metals. Temporal relationships between the base-metal ore deposits and local magmatism clearly indicate that mineralization is related to the waning stage of igneous activity. However, despite the close spacial and temporal relationship between the ore deposits and the magmatism, the Pb isotope values of galena fall within the ratios for the underlying metamorphic basement rocks, indicating that most of the ore Pb was derived predominantly through leaching from the metamorphic rocks. The 87Sr/86Sr ratios of barite range between more radiogenic strontium isotope composition of the basement metamorphic rocks and the less radiogenic isotopic signatures of the local igneous rocks, supporting mixing between those two sources. Considerable variations of the Pb and Sr isotope ratios even within the individual base-metal veins support the view that most of Sr and Pb in the vein-forming fluid was leached from the host rocks.

Direct dating of petroleum systems by hydrocarbon or associated authigenic minerals is crucial for petroleum system analysis and hydrocarbon exploration. The precipitation of authigenic pyrite in petroliferous basins is commonly genetically associated with hydrocarbon generation, migration, accumulation, or destruction. Pyrite rubidium-strontium (Rb-Sr) isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS) is a well-developed technique, and its successful application for high-temperature ore systems suggests that this dating method has the potential to directly date key processes in the low-temperature petroleum systems. Rb-Sr data for pyrites in two Ordovician carbonate rock specimens collected from ~4952 m in the YD-2 well in the Yudong region, northern Tarim Basin (NW China), yield two identical isochron ages within analytical uncertainties: 206 ± 13 (2σ) and 224 ± 28 Ma (2σ). SEM investigations demonstrate that Rb and Sr atoms mainly reside in the crystal lattice of the pyrites due to the absence of fluid and mineral inclusions. The rigorous Rb-Sr isochron relations documented in the samples indicate that such residency can result in sufficient Rb/Sr fractionation and initial Sr isotopic homogenization for geochronology. In addition, the closure temperature (227–320 °C) for the Rb-Sr isotope system in pyrite is higher than the precipitation temperature for pyrite in petroleum-related environments (below 200 °C), suggesting that the Rb-Sr age of pyrite was not overprinted by post-precipitation alteration. Integrating the lead-strontium-sulfur isotopes of the pyrites with burial history analysis, the ages are interpreted as the timing of alteration of the paleo-oil pool by a hydrothermally-triggered thermochemical sulfate reduction process. This study, for the first time, demonstrates that Rb-Sr pyrite geochronology, combined with radiogenic and stable isotopic analyses, can be a useful tool to evaluate the temporal evolution of oil pools. This approach bears great potential for dating of petroleum systems anywhere else in the world.

Modern techniques for detrital mineral provenance were applied to sediment core 96/12-1pc from the Lomonosov Ridge in the central Arctic Ocean. The techniques include quantitative clay mineralogy analysis combined with determination of Nd, Pb, and Sr isotopes from clay fraction. The clay mineral assemblage and the isotope signatures depict distinct changes during the Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 4-3 transition corresponding to the Middle Weichselian deglaciation. This transition is characterised by a homogenous, 48 cm thick, dark grey, silty clay layer with a distinctive IRD concentration, forming a prominent marker bed for the central Arctic Ocean sediments. The elevated smectite and kaolinite contents in the transitional interval are possible weathering products of the Siberian basaltic rocks, such as the Putorana Plateau, feeding the shelves of the Kara Sea and the western Laptev Sea. The Nd and Sr isotope values are compatible with input from the basaltic rocks and fall within the isotopic range of sediments from these shelves. The abrupt changes in the Nd, Pb and Sr isotopic data from the distinct grey layer attributed to the MIS 4-3 transition likely mark a pronounced deglaciation event. An increase in coarse debris in the grey layer indicates a change in the sedimentation regime with a strong iceberg rafting component. This change may also be related to a sudden release of meltwater from a large ice-dammed lake in the northern Siberia.

AbstractNew age data from Sr isotope analysis and both planktonic foraminifera and nannofossils are presented and discussed here for the Upper Eocene–Upper Miocene sedimentary rocks of the Değirmenlik (Kythrea) Group. New dating is also given of some Cretaceous and Pliocene sediments. In a revised stratigraphy the Değirmenlik (Kythrea) Group is divided into ten formations. Different Upper Miocene formations are developed to the north and south of a regionally important, E–W-trending syn-sedimentary fault. The samples were dated wherever possible by three independent methods, namely utilizing Sr isotopes, calcareous nannofossils and planktonic foraminifera. Some of the Sr isotopic dates are incompatible with the nannofossil and/or the planktonic foraminiferal dates. This is mainly due to reworking within gravity-deposited or current-affected sediments. When combined, the reliable age data allow an overall biostratigraphy and chronology to be erected. Several of the boundaries of previously defined formations are revised. Sr data that are incompatible with well-constrained biostratigraphical ages are commonly of Early Miocene age. This is attributed to a regional uplift event located to the east of Cyprus, specifically the collision of the Anatolian (Eurasian) and Arabian (African) plates during Early Miocene time. This study, therefore, demonstrates that analytically sound Sr isotopic ages can yield geologically misleading ages, particularly where extensive sediment reworking has occurred. Convincing ages are obtained when isotopic dating is combined with as many forms of biostratigraphical dating as possible, and this may also reveal previously unsuspected geological events (e.g. tectonic uplift or current activity).

We applied laser ablation sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (SF-ICP-MS) to the analysis of trace element and isotopic signatures in fish otoliths. Manganese, Sr, and Ba profiles across juvenile Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus) otoliths, expressed as ratios to Ca, showed considerable spatial and temporal variations that were presumably reflective of variations in water chemistry over the same scales. Differences in otolith Mn:Ca ratios between adjacent rivers in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina, may be related to dissolved oxygen levels in the rivers through reductive release of Mn2+ from sediments. Strontium and Ba profiles appeared to accurately reflect differences in dissolved Sr and Ba in freshwater end-members, both between Pamlico Sound and Chesapeake Bay and between seasons within Chesapeake Bay. High-precision analyses of Sr:Ca ratios in a black drum (Pogonias cromis) otolith showed distinctive quasi-sinusoidal cycles that were correlated with validated annual bands. Analyses of Sr and Pb isotopes, in otoliths and standard reference material, respectively, found that SF-ICP-MS produced accurate and precise estimates of isotope ratios in both solution-based and laser ablation assays.

Based on the determination of the major and trace element content, and the Sr isotope composition of soils from limestone and dolomite profiles in the karst area of Southwest (SW) China, this study discussed the distribution and migration characteristics of the elements and the influencing factors of Sr isotope fractionation, in order to better understand the chemical weathering and pedogenesis process, as well as to explore the material source of laterite. The chemical weathering analysis results (Chemical Index of Alteration, mass balance coefficient, and A-CN-K ternary) indicate that the weathering intensity of dolomite profile PB is higher than that of limestone profiles CZ and CY. The correlation analysis between Sr isotopes and P2O5 suggests that in addition to illite, apatite in the dolomite profile also affects the 87Sr/86Sr composition. Sr content and 87Sr/86Sr demonstrate two stages in the weathering process of the carbonate, carbonate dissolution stage, and residual silicate weathering stage. As the carbonate minerals dissolve at the beginning of weathering, the Sr content decreases and 87Sr/86Sr increases slightly. After the decomposition of carbonate, the Sr content remains unchanged and 87Sr/86Sr increases. Finally, the study suggests that the material source of laterite is more likely to be underlying bedrock rather than the aeolian source.

Recent years have seen an increase in the forensic interest associated with the poison ricin, which is extracted from the seeds of theRicinus communisplant. Both light element (C, N, O, and H) and strontium (Sr) isotope ratios have previously been used to associate organic material with geographic regions of origin. We present a Bayesian integration methodology that can more accurately predict the region of origin for a castor bean than individual models developed independently for light element stable isotopes or Sr isotope ratios. Our results demonstrate a clear improvement in the ability to correctly classify regions based on the integrated model with a class accuracy of60.9±2.1% versus55.9±2.1% and40.2±1.8% for the light element and strontium (Sr) isotope ratios, respectively. In addition, we show graphically the strengths and weaknesses of each dataset in respect to class prediction and how the integration of these datasets strengthens the overall model.

The development of new analytical techniques enabled the precise determination of the expanded set of stable isotopes and provided new insight into existing geological issues. This review outlines recent studies of non-traditional isotope signatures in geological matrices, summarizing in one place, new data for the stable isotopes of Ca, Mg, Sr, Li, Ni, Cr, and Cu and their application in the interpretation of environmental processes. Although some, such as δ44Ca and δ26Mg, have previously been used to track changes in seawater chemistry throughout geological history, recent studies report their application as geochemical proxies of post-depositional processes. Similarly, isotopic signatures of strontium, previously used in radioactive isotope chronology, and δ7Li, used in tracing plate subduction and crust/mantle material cycling, found a new application in studies of weathering patterns. The use of δ53Cr and δ 65Cu isotope signatures, on the other hand, reflects their fractionation under different redox conditions, whereas δ60Ni, due to its adsorption and co-precipitation with sulfide species and Fe-Mn phases, is used in interpreting the contributions of different material sources. And while the isotopic signatures of all these elements indicate certain environmental conditions and processes (e.g. post-depositional processes, redox conditions, organic matter input, the contribution of sources, etc.), by combining them a more comprehensive insight into the investigated environment can be achieved.

Strontium isotopes of marine archives provide a significant means for tracing physical and chemical processes operating over geologic time. Modern articulated brachiopods and halite samples were collected from all depths of the world’s main water bodies. Material from the Arctic, North and South Atlantic, North and South Pacific, Indian and Southern oceans, as well as Caribbean and Mediterranean seas provide baseline parameters for diagenetic screening and reconstruction of seawater curves. The Sr isotopic ratio of modern brachiopods is unobscured by latitude, depth, and biologic factors (Order, valves, and shell segment). However, there is a small but significant impact of external sources reflected by salinity and temperature on the Sr isotope ratio of modern brachiopods. We found a significant difference in 87Sr/86Sr of brachiopods from polar and temperate-tropical habitats (p = 0.001), which should be considered when working with deep-time archives. The average 87Sr/86Sr value of all our modern shells (0.709160 ± 0.000019; N = 95) and halite (0.709153) is similar to values measured for modern seawater (0.710167 ± 0.000009; p = 0.118). The radiogenic Sr content of present-day seawater does not vary significantly, and modern biogenic-calcite 87Sr/86Sr ranges from 0.709126 to 0.709233 with a fluctuation of about ±0.000054. With the most rigorous diagenetic evaluations and stratigraphic assignment of deep-time samples, and applying the Sr isotope fluctuation recorded by modern biogenic calcite to ancient carbonates and a 1 Myr interval, reconstructions resulted in a seawater-87Sr curve with greater details during the Phanerozoic and Neoproterozoic.

An accident in March 2011 released small amounts of radioactive strontium isotopes ([Formula: see text]Sr) along with large amounts of radioactive caesium isotopes ([Formula: see text]Cs). [Formula: see text]Sr isotopes accumulate in bone and are more dangerous than [Formula: see text]Cs isotopes. Therefore, it is necessary to research the contamination by [Formula: see text]Sr. We examined 10 types of plants and the soil beneath them using particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) analysis and investigated correlations between elemental transfer coefficients from soil to plant, including Sr, magnesium (Mg), and calcium (Ca). We determined that the Sr transfer coefficient was [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]0.2; we found a proportional relationship between those of Mg and Ca, which were [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]0.2. We collected plant and soil samples from hot locations close to the nuclear power plant and investigated the contamination by [Formula: see text]Cs and [Formula: see text]Sr in plants and soil using a [Formula: see text]-ray scintillation detector and our new [Formula: see text]Sr detection system. We recorded [Formula: see text]Sr specific activities of 19 and 5.6 kBq/kg at and 5 cm below the soil surface, respectively, at a distance of 3 km from the nuclear power plant. We estimated a specific activity of [Formula: see text]Sr in plants of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]0.6 Bq/kg in most of the Fukushima region, 13–64 Bq/kg in the controlled area, and 380 Bq/kg within 3 km of the nuclear power plant. Thus, we confirmed that plants grown in Fukushima were free of contamination by [Formula: see text]Cs and [Formula: see text]Sr.

Calcium isotopes of carbonate rocks can trace calcium cycles and record changes in the marine environment. As published calcium isotope profiles of carbonate rocks at the Permian-Triassic boundary are rare, comparative studies on deep-water profiles were lacking for the major extinction event that occurred during this time. We present sections of different water depths in the Chibi area of southern China that we have selected for a comparative study. We analyzed carbon isotopes, calcium isotopes, as well as major and trace elements of carbonates from two sections (Chibi North and Chibi West) to obtain information on the volcanic activity, ocean acidification, as well as sea level rise and fall in the Chibi area during the mass extinction period. All carbon and calcium isotopes of carbonates from both sections are all negative after the mass extinction boundary. Carbonates from the Chibi North section have higher δ44/40Ca values and lower Sr/Ca ratios than the rocks from the Chibi West section. We propose that the negative bias of the calcium isotopes in the two sections result from diagenesis. Diagenesis transforms primary aragonite into calcite, showing the characteristics of high δ44/40Ca value and low Sr/Ca. By comparing our data with three published profiles of shallow-water carbonate rock, we recognize that calcium isotopes record gradients at different water depths. In the slope environment, the enhancement of pore fluid action near the coast caused an increase of the fluid buffer alteration, and we propose that a regression event occurred in the Chibi region during the Late Permian.

Advances in probe-based mass spectrometry allow for high spatial resolution of elemental and isotopic signatures in fish otoliths that can be used to address fundamental questions in fisheries ecology. Analyses of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) otoliths from two river populations yield identical 87Sr/86Sr ratios using laser ablation multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICPMS) and thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS). Results were obtained from freshwater otoliths with low Sr concentrations (300800 ppm) using high spatial resolution (50 µm) corresponding to temporal histories of ~12 days fish growth. Low natural variation in 87Sr/86Sr among otoliths from the same rivers allows for conservative estimates of external precision of techniques. Thus, we demonstrate that Sr isotope ratios obtained by LA-MC-ICPMS can be accurate and precise, bypassing the time-intensive sample preparation required by microdrilling and TIMS. This technique opens the use of Sr isotopes for broader ecological questions requiring large sample sizes to characterize nursery habitats, metapopulation dynamics, and stock discrimination similar to studies that focus on elemental concentrations, thereby providing a more robust tool for some freshwater and diadromous fishes.

ABSTRACTThe Lower Permian of the Haushi basin, Interior Oman (Al Khlata Formation to Saiwan Formation/lower Gharif member) records climate change from glaciation, through marine sedimentation in the Haushi sea, to subtropical desert. To investigate the palaeoclimatic evolution of the Haushi Sea we used O, C, and Sr isotopes from 31 brachiopod shells of eight species collected bed by bed within the type-section of the Saiwan Formation. We assessed diagenesis by scanning electron microscopy of ultrastructure, cathodoluminescence, and geochemistry, and rejected fifteen shells not meeting specific preservation criteria. Spiriferids and spiriferinids show better preservation of the fibrous secondary layer than do orthotetids and productids and are therefore more suitable for isotopic analysis. δ18O of −3·7 to −3·1℅ from brachiopods at the base of the Saiwan Formation are probably related to glacial meltwater. Above this, an increase in δ18O may indicate ice accumulation elsewhere in Gondwana or more probably that the Haushi sea was an evaporating embayment of the Neotethys Ocean. δ13C varies little and is within the range of published data: its trend towards heavier values is consistent with increasing aridity and oligotrophy. Saiwan Sr isotope signatures are less radiogenic than those of the Sakmarian LOWESS seawater curve, which is based on extrapolation between few data points. In the scenario of evaporation in a restricted Haushi basin, the variation in Sr isotope composition may reflect a fluvial component.

Isotope compositions of basalts provide information about the chemical reservoirs in Earth’s interior and play a critical role in defining models of Earth’s structure. However, the helium isotope signature of the mantle below depths of a few hundred kilometers has been difficult to measure directly. This information is a vital baseline for understanding helium isotopes in erupted basalts. We measured He-Sr-Pb isotope ratios in superdeep diamond fluid inclusions from the transition zone (depth of 410 to 660 kilometers) unaffected by degassing and shallow crustal contamination. We found extreme He-C-Pb-Sr isotope variability, with high 3He/4He ratios related to higher helium concentrations. This indicates that a less degassed, high-3He/4He deep mantle source infiltrates the transition zone, where it interacts with recycled material, creating the diverse compositions recorded in ocean island basalts.

AbstractThe Llanrwst Pb–Zn and Llanfair–Talhaiarn Cu–Pb–Zn orefields contain vein mineralization similar to Lower Palaeozoic-hosted base metal deposits elsewhere in the British Isles, which are believed to have formed in the late Palaeozoic. K–Ar and Rb–Sr data on intensely sericitized wallrock material indicate that the main phase of mineralization at both orefields occurred between the mid-Devonian and theTournasian (386–350 Ma). The latest veins at Llanrwst formed in Visean–Westphalian times. Gangue mineral Sr isotope compositions indicate a mixture of radiogenic wallrock-derived Sr with less radiogenic Sr, with a poorly-defined trend to more radiogenic compositions with time.The age of the main mineralization precludes dewatering of Carboniferous basins as a source of ore fluid. More generally Sr isotopes rule out unmodified basinal brines or metamorphic fluids as mineralizing agents, since their Sr content would be too radiogenic. Local sources of unradiogenic Sr are available at Llanrwst in metadolerites and calcareous sandstones and at Llanfair–Talhaiarn in thin Ludlow Limestone beds.

Abstract. Palaeoclimate information on multiple climate variables at different spatiotemporal scales is becoming increasingly important to understand environmental and societal responses to climate change. A lack of high-quality reconstructions of past hydroclimate has recently been identified as a critical research gap. Speleothems, with their precise chronologies, widespread distribution, and ability to record changes in local to regional hydroclimate variability, are an ideal source of such information. Here, we present a new version of the Speleothem Isotopes Synthesis and AnaLysis database (SISALv3), which has been expanded to include trace element ratios and Sr isotopes as additional, hydroclimate-sensitive geochemical proxies. The oxygen and carbon isotope data included in previous versions of the database have been substantially expanded. SISALv3 contains speleothem data from 365 sites from across the globe, including 95 Mg/Ca, 85 Sr/Ca, 52 Ba/Ca, 25 U/Ca, 29 P/Ca, and 14 Sr-isotope records. The database also has increased spatiotemporal coverage for stable oxygen (892) and carbon (620) isotope records compared with SISALv2 (which consists of 673 and 430 stable oxygen and carbon records, respectively). Additional meta information has been added to improve the machine-readability and filtering of data. Standardized chronologies are included for all new entities along with the originally published chronologies. Thus, the SISALv3 database constitutes a unique resource of speleothem palaeoclimate information that allows regional to global palaeoclimate analyses based on multiple geochemical proxies, permitting more robust interpretations of past hydroclimate and comparisons with isotope-enabled climate models and other Earth system and hydrological models. The database can be accessed at https://doi.org/10.5287/ora-2nanwp4rk (Kaushal et al., 2024).

Early Jurassic- to Early Cretaceous-age calcareous nannofossils from the Sarki, Sehkanyian, Sargelu, Naokelekan, Barsarin and Chia Gara formations are investigated for the first time from the Warte area, northeastern Iraqi Kurdistan. A range of isotopic and inorganic geochemical analyses are carried out in order to reconstruct the paleoecological and paleoclimatic conditions during which the Sarki, Sehkanyian, Sargelu, Naokelekan, Barsarin and Chia Gara formations were deposited. The age of the Sargelu Formation was determined as Bajocian–Callovian based on the first occurrence of Cyclagelosphaera margerelii, Watznaueria britannica, W. fossacincta, W. manivitiae, Watznaueria barnesiae and Watznaueria ovata. Geochemical proxies (Sr, Ca, Al, Rb/Sr, Sr/Cu and Sr/Ba) for paleoclimate and paleoecological conditions, along with oxygen isotopes (δ18O) data, suggest that warm and arid climatic conditions were predominant during the Early Jurassic–Early Cretaceous period.

We explore the prospect of applying mineral element and stable isotope data in origin tracing Procambarus clarkii to establish an origin tracing system. Microwave digestion–atomic absorption spectrometry and stable isotope ratio mass spectrometry determined the contents of 14 mineral elements (Na, Mg, Al, K, Ca, Mn, Zn, Cu, Fe, Sr, Ba, As, Se and Cd) and the abundances of C and N stable isotopes in the muscle tissue of P. clarkii from Guangdong, Hunan and Hubei regions. The one-way ANOVA and Duncan multiple comparison results revealed Na, Sr, Ba, Cu, Mn, Fe, Al, Se, δ13C and δ15N varied significantly between the three regions (p < 0.05). A systematic clustering analysis revealed the stable isotopes combined with the mineral elements easily distinguished samples into the three different regions. Multivariate statistical analysis allowed us to establish a discriminant model for distinguishing P. clarkii from the three geographical regions. When stable isotopes were combined with mineral elements, the accuracy of the linear discriminant analysis of the samples from Guangdong, Hunan and Hubei were 95%, 95% and 100%, respectively. The initial overall discriminant accuracy was 96.7%, and the cross-validation discriminant accuracy was 93.3%. Principal component analysis identified three main components which were based on eleven major factors, including Cu, Ba, Cd, Mn, δ13C, δ15N, Al and Mg, resulting in a cumulative variance contribution rate of 78.77%. We established a three-dimensional coordinate system using the three principal components to create scatter diagrams with the samples from the three regions in the coordinate system. The results revealed the samples clearly differentiated into the three regions. Therefore, mineral elements combined with stable isotopes can distinguish the regional origin of P. clarkii.

Neutron-rich Sr nuclei around N=60 exhibit a sudden shape transition from a spherical ground state to strongly prolate-deformed. Recently, much new insight into the structure of Sr isotopes in this region has been gained through experimental studies of the excited levels, transition strengths, and spectroscopic factors. In this work, a “classic” shell model description of strontium isotopes from N=50 to N=58 is provided, using a natural valence space outside the 78Ni core. Both even–even and even–odd isotopes are addressed. In particular, spectroscopic factors are computed to shed more light on the structure of low-energy excitations and their evolution along the Sr chain. The origin of deformation at N=60 is mentioned in the context of the present and previous shell model and Monte Carlo shell model calculations.

The gold deposit offshore of Northern Sanshandao is an ultra-large-scale gold deposit discovered in the Jiaodong ore area in recent years. This deposit is a fractured-zone altered-rock-type gold deposit; however, its ore genesis and precise mineralization processes are still highly controversial. Based on petrographical observation, the trace elements, sulfur isotopes, and rubidium–strontium isotopes of the gold-bearing pyrite were analyzed using LA-MC-ICP-MS to obtain the source of the ore-forming fluids and ore genesis. The results show that Au has a good positive correlation with Ag, As, and Cu. It is speculated that the As in the pyrite of the gold deposit offshore of Northern Sanshandao is in the form of As−, replacing S− and entering the pyrite, causing its lattice defects, and thus promoting the entry of Au+ into the gold-bearing pyrite. The Co/Ni ratios mainly range between 0.1 and 10, indicating that the mineralization process has experienced different forms of hydrothermal evolution and the mixing of different fluids. The results of the in-situ sulfur isotope analysis show that pyrite δ34S in the mineralization period is characterized by a high sulfur value. The authors of this study believe that the initial sulfur isotope composition has mantle-derived components. The large-scale, deep cutting, and high degree of fragmentation in the Sanshandao fault zone are conducive to the interaction between fluids and rocks, as well as the mixing and addition of seawater, resulting in the characteristic high δ34S value. The Sr isotopic compositions indicate a crust–mantle mixing attribute of the mineralized material source. The Rb–Sr isochron age of the pyrite is 118.5 ± 0.65 Ma, which represents the age of gold mineralization. According to the characteristics of the trace elements and sulfur isotopes, it is inferred that the gold deposit minerals offshore of Northern Sanshandao originated from deep magmatic-hydrothermal reservoirs, and the mixing of seawater and Au–As-rich hydrothermal fluids was the formation mechanism of huge amounts of gold precipitation.

The Maronia pluton, a high-K intrusion in the Circum Rhodope Belt, comprises gabbro to monzonite to granite having pyroxene, biotite and less olivine and amphibole. Three rock groups have been recognised: a basic, an intermediate and an acid. Major, trace and REE geochemistry as well as Sr and Ο isotopes support a genetic relation between the basic and the intermediate group but not between them and the acid group. An AFC process with a carbonate assimilant or an MFC process, where the basic end-member is represented by the less evolved samples, and the acid end-member by more evolved samples having Sr isotopes higher than those in the acid group, is suggested for the evolution of the basic-intermediate group. The basic-intermediate group originates from a lithospheric mantle while the acid group probably from a low-Sr isotopes crustal melt.

The main aim of this work is to demonstrate that the Laser ablation multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICP-MS) is a powerful tool for the analysis of strontium (Sr) isotopes in corals. This work discusses certification strategies for Sr isotopes determination, using reference material (RM) analyses and the results treatment based on detailed data acquired in biological materials, a coral sample. To obtain reliable results, it is essential to properly adjust the mass spectrometer and laser ablation system. Adjusting the equipment to its maximum intensity does not always result in correct 87Sr/86Sr ratios. Therefore, the optimization of the mass spectrometer was performed using the reference material NIST SRM-987 (solution) and adjusting the correct Sr isotope ratio to the reference material (USGS MACS3 and NIST-612, solids) before each analytical session. The protocol applied the solid reference material USGS MACS3 with an isotopic ratio 87Sr/86Sr of 0.72000. The values obtained for this RM varied between 0.7012 and 0.7014, with a correction factor calculated between 0.990 and 0.988. In order to account for potential drifts in the mass spectrometer during an analytical session, the application of bracketing correction and the use of the most convenient reference material are suggested. The analytical uncertainty of Sr data obtained by LA-MC-ICP-MS is comparable to studies carried out on other carbonate materials. The results of ablation techniques are reproducible within the analytical error, which implies that this technique produces robust results when applied to coral carbonates. In addition, several comparative measurements of different reference materials (e.g. USGS MACS3 and NIST 612) and the comparison of the 87Sr/86Sr ratios highlight the robustness of the method. The results along the coral growth axes showed a decrease in the 87Sr/86Sr ratio from the inner to the outer layer of the coral (from 0.70920 to 0.70627), which indicate variations in the availability of particulate matter during the coral growth, probably related to local marine environmental changes.

We report on the isotopic compositions of the Jurassic supra-subduction zone Evros ophiolite mafic rocks exposed in the eastern Circum-Rhodope Belt in the Thrace region of northeastern Greece. These mafic units consist of low-Ti gabbroic and basaltic rocks, which Nd-Sr-Pb isotopes are compatible with dominant mantle-derived Mid-Ocean Ridge Basalt (MORB) component mixed with a detectable amount of crustal material and/or sediment involved in their melt source in the subduction zone. These isotopic features are consistent with an intra-oceanic arc origin of the mafic ophiolite rocks, and the Evros ophiolite Nd and Pb isotopes are comparable to those of the counterpart mafic rocks from the Mandritsa Unit in the eastern Rhodope Massif of southern Bulgaria.

New W isotope data for lunar metals demonstrate that the Moon formed late in isotopic equilibrium with the bulk silicate Earth (BSE). On this basis, lunar Sr isotope data are used to define the former composition of the Earth and hence the Rb–Sr age of the Moon, which is 4.48±0.02 Ga, or 70–110 Ma (million years) after the start of the Solar System. This age is significantly later than had been deduced from W isotopes based on model assumptions or isotopic effects now known to be cosmogenic. The Sr age is in excellent agreement with earlier estimates based on the time of lunar Pb loss and the age of the early lunar crust (4.46±0.04 Ga). Similar ages for the BSE are recorded by xenon and lead–lead, providing evidence of catastrophic terrestrial degassing, atmospheric blow-off and significant late core formation accompanying the ca 100 Ma giant impact. Agreement between the age of the Moon based on the Earth's Rb/Sr and the lead–lead age of the Moon is consistent with no major losses of moderately volatile elements from the Earth during the giant impact. The W isotopic composition of the BSE can be explained by end member models of (i) gradual accretion with a mean life of roughly 35 Ma or (ii) rapid growth with a mean life of roughly 10 Ma, followed by a significant hiatus prior to the giant impact. The former assumes that approximately 60 per cent of the incoming metal from impactors is added directly to the core during accretion. The latter includes complete mixing of all the impactor material into the BSE during accretion. The identical W isotopic composition of the Moon and the BSE limits the amount of material that can be added as a late veneer to the Earth after the giant impact to less than 0.3±0.3 per cent of ordinary chondrite or less than 0.5±0.6 per cent CI carbonaceous chondrite based on their known W isotopic compositions. Neither of these on their own is sufficient to explain the inventories of both refractory siderophiles such as platinum group elements and rhenium, and volatiles such as sulphur, carbon and water.

Lava samples from the Christmas Island Seamount Province (CHRISP) record an extreme range in enriched mantle (EM) type Sr-Nd-Pb-Hf isotope signatures. Here we report osmium isotope data obtained on four samples from the youngest, Pliocene petit-spot phase (Upper Volcanic Series, UVS; ~4.4 Ma), and four samples from the earlier, Eocene (Lower Volcanic Series, LVS; ~40 Ma) shield building phase of Christmas Island. Osmium concentrations are low (5–82 ppt) with initial Os isotopic values (187Os/188Osi) ranging from (0.1230–0.1679). Along with additional new geochemical data (major and trace elements, Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes, olivine δ18O values), we demonstrate the following: (1) The UVS is consistent with melting of shallow Indian mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) mantle enriched with both lower continental crust (LCC) and subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) components; and (2) The LVS is consistent with recycling of SCLM components related to Gondwana break-up. The SCLM component has FOZO or HIMU like characteristics. One of the LVS samples has less radiogenic Os (γOs –3.4) and provides evidence for the presence of ancient SCLM in the source. The geochemistry of the Christmas Island lava series supports the idea that continental breakup causes shallow recycling of lithospheric and lower crustal components into the ambient MORB mantle.

For many species, understanding the processes underlying variation in life history strategies is limited by the difficulty of tracking individuals throughout their lives. Within the rapidly expanding field of otolith microchemistry, novel approaches are being combined with state-of-the-art analytical techniques to provide new and valuable information about the environmental history of fishes. However, no approach to date allows the reconstruction of fish movements at high temporal resolution (weeks to months) over relatively small spatial scales (110 km). We used micromilling techniques to extract strontium (Sr) isotopic signatures from the otoliths of four returning Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) adults. Distinct Sr isotopic signatures were detectable from four life cycle stages, including prefeeding hatchery development, rearing stream growth, smolt out-migration, and ocean residence. High-resolution analyses of Sr isotope records establish that natal stream signatures are recoverable and show that both site fidelity within the freshwater stage and the timing of migration vary considerably among individuals. Results made possible with this approach provide insight into a long-standing debate on the mobility of salmon during their nonmigratory stage. The ability to resolve flexible behaviors of salmon increases our understanding of their population biology and conservation needs.

We compared the success of using naturally occurring stable isotopes of N, C, and Sr as markers for the rearing locations of juvenile salmon. We analyzed the isotopic signatures (δ15N and δ13C in muscle and scales and 87Sr/86Sr in otoliths) of >200 juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) from 12 tributaries of the Connecticut River, USA. Young salmon had distinct N and C signatures 5 weeks after stocking. Signatures were stable over the summer although δ13C varied more than δ15N or 87Sr/86Sr. Scale and muscle signatures were highly correlated, demonstrating the feasibility of nonlethal sampling using fish scales. Some C (but not N) signature from the hatchery was retained in scales of 3-month-old fish, implicating scale annuli as a repository for past C signatures. The δ15N values successfully differentiated fish from tributaries with differences in land use (e.g., agricultural versus forested; ≈ 33% of sites); the δ13C values differentiated fish from 45% of sites. Based upon a discriminant-function analysis, group membership of individuals was correctly predicted in 44.3% (74 of 167) of cases for which both N and C were analyzed. In combination, N and C isotopes differentiated 73% of study sites, which was close to the success of Sr isotopes in the same system (83%).

Apatite Sr-Nd and zircon Hf-O isotopes are broadly used to trace magma sources and constrain magma evolution processes, further improving our understanding of the origin of granitoids. We present zircon U-Pb ages, whole-rock major and trace elements, and whole-rock Sr-Nd-Hf, zircon Hf-O, and apatite Sr-Nd isotopic data for the coarse-grained quartz monzonite, biotite monzogranite, and granite porphyry in the Yushulinzi pluton in the Liaodong Peninsula, the eastern North China Craton, to establish their magma sources and petrogenesis. The coarse-grained quartz monzonite, biotite monzogranite, and granite porphyry were formed contemporaneously, with zircon U-Pb ages of 123–119 Ma. They share enriched whole-rock Sr-Nd-Hf and zircon Hf isotopic compositions, and the coarse-grained quartz monzonite has crust-like δ18O values (5.7–6.7‰). The coarse-grained quartz monzonite and biotite monzogranite have variable apatite (87Sr/86Sr)i ratios and negative apatite εNd(t) values. These isotopic characteristics indicate that the different rock types in the Yushulinzi pluton were derived from the partial melting of ancient crustal material in the North China Craton. Their geochemical and petrographic characteristics indicate that the crystal-melt segregation model can be employed to elucidate the genetic links among different rock types, with the coarse-grained quartz monzonite representing crystal accumulation and the biotite monzogranite and granite porphyry representing interstitial melts extracted from a crystal-rich magma chamber. Furthermore, the variable apatite Sr isotopic compositions and subtle differences in the peak zircon εHf(t) values of the studied rock samples confirm the possibility of a contribution from shallow crustal components and materials with high εHf(t) values during magma evolution, which is not readily revealed by their whole-rock Sr-Nd-Hf isotopic compositions. These results demonstrate that in situ apatite Sr-Nd and zircon Hf-O isotopic analyses have the potential to provide distinctive insights into the magma sources and evolution of magmatic systems.

Abstract. Strontium isotopes (87Sr/86Sr) are useful to trace processes in the Earth sciences as well as in forensic, archaeological, palaeontological, and ecological sciences. As very few large-scale Sr isoscapes exist in Australia, we have identified an opportunity to determine 87Sr/86Sr ratios on archived fluvial sediment samples from the low-density National Geochemical Survey of Australia. The present study targeted the northern parts of Western Australia, the Northern Territory, and Queensland, north of 21.5∘ S. The samples were taken mostly from a depth of ∼60–80 cm in floodplain deposits at or near the outlet of large catchments (drainage basins). A coarse (<2 mm) grain-size fraction was air-dried, sieved, milled, and digested (hydrofluoric acid + nitric acid followed by aqua regia) to release total Sr. The Sr was then separated by chromatography, and the 87Sr/86Sr ratio was determined by multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The results demonstrate a wide range of Sr isotopic values (0.7048 to 1.0330) over the survey area, reflecting a large diversity of source rock lithologies, geological processes, and bedrock ages. The spatial distribution of 87Sr/86Sr shows coherent (multi-point anomalies and smooth gradients), large-scale (>100 km) patterns that appear to be broadly consistent with surface geology, regolith/soil type, and/or nearby outcropping bedrock. For instance, the extensive black clay soils of the Barkly Tableland define a >500 km long northwest–southeast-trending unradiogenic anomaly (87Sr/86Sr <0.7182). Where sedimentary carbonate or mafic/ultramafic igneous rocks dominate, low to moderate 87Sr/86Sr values are generally recorded (medians of 0.7387 and 0.7422, respectively). Conversely, In proximity to the outcropping Proterozoic metamorphic basement of the Tennant, McArthur, Murphy, and Mount Isa geological regions, radiogenic 87Sr/86Sr values (>0.7655) are observed. A potential correlation between mineralization and elevated 87Sr/86Sr values in these regions needs to be investigated in greater detail. Our results to date indicate that incorporating soil/regolith Sr isotopes in regional, exploratory geoscience investigations can help identify basement rock types under (shallow) cover, constrain surface processes (e.g. weathering and dispersion), and, potentially, recognize components of mineral systems. Furthermore, the resulting Sr isoscape and future models derived therefrom can also be utilized in forensic, archaeological, palaeontological, and ecological studies that aim to investigate, for example, past and modern animal (including humans) dietary habits and migrations. The new spatial Sr isotope dataset for the northern Australia region is publicly available (de Caritat et al., 2022a; https://doi.org/10.26186/147473).

Research subject. The isotopic composition (Pb-Pb, Sm-Nd, Rb-Sr, Os/Os, Hf/Hf, 3 He/4 He, etc.) of magmatic complexes and ore-magmatic systems (OMS) of two ore clusters (Kupolsky and Ilirneysky) located in the subpolar Western Chukotka was studied. These ore clusters differ from each other both in their structural position and the age of their magmatic complexes, within which the largest deposits of Au-Ag type are known. Materials and methods. The Pb-Pb, Rb-Sr, SmNd, Re-Os, Lu-Hf, 3 He/4 He, 40Ar/36Ar and sulphur isotopic systems were studied at the VSEGEI centre for isotopic studies (St. Petersburg), as well as at the Institute of Geology, Geochemistry and Ore Deposits (IGEM, Moscow) and the Laboratory of Stable Isotopes of the Far Eastern Geological Institute (FEGI, Vladivostok). Re and Os were measured using an ELEMENT-2 inductively coupled plasma single-collector mass spectrometer. Sulphur isotopic ratios were measured using a Finnigan MAT 253 isotope mass spectrometer. Results and conclusions. On the basis of the isotope-geochemical data obtained, an assumption was made that various deep sources participated in the magma generation, and the differentiated composition of late melts may reflect the melting processes of the crust upper horizons. When comparing the data on the magmatism of the Ilirneysky and Kupolsky ore clusters, a different degree of crustal rock influence on melt generation was revealed. The Kupolsky ore cluster is characterised by a large influence of mantle sources in intraplate magmatism associated with ore formation processes. This is likely to have determined a greater amount of mineralisation in the Kupolsky cluster compared to the Ilirneysky ore cluster.

AbstractThe Carboniferous chronostratigraphic scale consists of two subsystems, six series and seven stages. Precise numerical age control within the Carboniferous is uneven, and a global magnetic polarity timescale for the Carboniferous is far from established. Isotope stratigraphy based on Sr, C and O isotopes is at an early stage but has already identified a few Sr and C isotope events of use to global correlation. Cyclostratigraphy has created a workable astrochronology for part of Pennsylvanian time that needs better calibration. Chronostratigraphic definitions of most of the seven Carboniferous stages remain unfinished. Future research on the Carboniferous timescale should focus on Global Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) selection for the remaining, undefined stage bases, definition and characterization of substages, and further development and integration of the Carboniferous chronostratigraphic scale with radioisotopic, magnetostratigraphic, chemostratigraphic and cyclostratigraphic tools for calibration and correlation, and the cross-correlation of non-marine and marine chronologies.
