Services

We offer advise on what is possible, and the best way to attain the best results.

We can facilitate the following procedures as necessary:

• Collecting the rock sample
• Microstructural analysis
• Microchemical analysis
• ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar analysis of the grains
• Interpretation of analysis
• Modelling of diffusion experiments
• Publication material or full reports as required or discussed

We specialise in ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar furnace step heating and/or laser fusion of a variety of rocks and minerals, including amphiboles, biotites, fuschite, white micas (phengite, muscovite), feldspars (K-feldspars, plagioclase). We also work with whole-rock materials, typically extrusive volcanic rocks if a project necessitates it.
