Downhole fractionation correction for Rb-Sr DRS

EricVandenburg

Does anyone have a Rb-Sr DRS that corrects for downhole fractionation? The current Rb-Sr DRS does not correct for this and it significantly affects the precision of in-situ Rb-Sr analyses.

Hi EricVandenburg

If you could send an example datafile to the iolite support email address, I'd be happy to add it to the current Rb-Sr DRS.

Kind regards,

Hi Bence, I was wondering if you guys had managed to add downhole fractionation correction to the Rb-Sr DRS?
Cheers, Romain.

Hi @RomainT ,

I've only seen one relevant dataset, and the downhole fractionation was not consistent enough to apply a correction (in that dataset).

If you have a different dataset that you'd like to share, please feel free to send it to the iolite support email address.
