I'm not sure where this site is located, so I can't make any specific comments. Specific instrumental methods can be found at http://www.swxrflab.net/anlysis.htm, and Shackley (2005). Source assignment was made by comparison to source standard data in the laboratory. Analysis of the USGS RGM-1 standard indicates high machine precision for the elements of interest (Table 1 here). Sincerely, M. Steven Shackley, Ph.D. Director VOICE: 510-393-3931 INTERNET: [email protected]Read More
