Abstract:In recent years, various sample preparation methods have been developed to extract a primary Sr isotope signal from carbonate rocks. However, there has been little consensus around the best method due to natural variability in sample purity and mineralogy. For this study, we conducted systematic leaching experiments, focussing mainly on generally less favoured argillaceous and dolomitic limestones, using samples from the Mesoproterozoic Gaoyuzhuang Formation. Learning from previous studies, a multistep leachin… Show more
