Historically, the elemental analysis of coins has been pivotal in distinguishing authentic artifacts from forgeries, elucidating minting practices, and understanding economic shifts. Notably, a new gold source with high platinum content appeared in the fourth century CE, transforming the Roman economy. Traditional methods struggled to detect platinum due to the overwhelming gold matrix. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of HERFD techniques in resolving this challenge. Three gold solidi, minted between 654 and 659 CE, were analyzed alongside reference gold materials with known Pt concentrations. The HERFD-XRF imaging revealed spatial distributions of platinum, highlighting non-uniformities within the coins. Additionally, HERFD-XANES spectroscopy identified the oxidation states and chemical speciation of platinum. Results demonstrate that platinum in the solidi primarily exists as metallic Pt, with some surface oxidation. The findings align with previous measurements but reveal higher Pt concentrations and significant inhomogeneities. This research confirms the reliability of HERFD methods for quantifying trace elements and provides new insights into the raw material sources and minting techniques of ancient gold coins. The non-destructive nature of this approach allows for extensive analyses, offering valuable data for historical, economic, and archaeological studies. This innovative application of HERFD-XRF imaging and XANES in cultural heritage research underscores the potential for detailed material characterization and conservation, enhancing our understanding of ancient economies and trade patterns.</p>","PeriodicalId":81,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry","volume":" 1","pages":" 137-145"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142912691","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

LA-ICP-MS is recognized as a green and efficient method for the bulk analysis of trace elements in natural samples. However, a major issue is the lack of matrix-matched reference materials for columbite ores. In this study, we developed an advanced method to produce pressed ultrafine-powder pellets with appropriate concentrations by applying a wet-mill method. The optimized scheme achieves a typical grain size of <em>d</em><small><sub>90</sub></small> = 1.74 μm, forming pressed powder pellets with great cohesion and homogeneity, suitable for LA-ICP-MS. The relative standard deviation (RSD) values obtained from repeated measurements are &lt;10% for more than 50 elements, comparable to those of homogeneous reference glasses. A systematic investigation of glass reference materials, commercial iron ore pellets, and our synthetic columbite ore pellets revealed significant matrix effects in various materials when using nanosecond laser ablation. Although the use of a femtosecond laser ablation system can partially suppress the matrix effect that occurs during the laser ablation process, the matrix effect in the ICP caused by differences in chemical composition remains challenging to resolve. The use of a “wet” plasma mode enhanced the matrix effect. Our results highlight the importance of matrix-matched reference materials in quantitative analysis of columbite ores and other ore samples. Utilizing the matrix-matched calibration method, we successfully determined trace elements in pressed powder pellets of iron ore (MAKR-NP) and columbite ore (LSC), with discrepancies of less than 10% for most elements.</p>","PeriodicalId":81,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Analytical Atomic Spectrometry","volume":" 1","pages":" 259-275"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142912621","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the application of this method is limited by a shortage of suitable calibration standards.

A four-step chemical separation scheme results in sharp separation of Sm and Nd from the same sample aliquot. The first step utilises anion exchange resin to remove Fe from the sample solution. Two different liquid–liquid extraction resins are then used to isolate rare-earth elements (TRU-Spec) and purify Sm from Nd (DGA). Fractionation occurs on the DGA resin due to the nuclear field shift effect, but this is negligible if yields greater than 70% are achieved. Different analytical setups were tested to ascertain their ionisation efficiencies on TIMS. The effect of activators composed of Pt and Ta was tested on single Re filaments but the conventional double Re filament assembly provided efficient ionisation and more stable ion beams.
