Determination of zirconium,niobium,hafnium,tantalum,lithium,beryllium,vanadium,phosphorus,uranium and manganese in geological samples by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with sodium peroxide alkali fusion

The accurate determination of Zr, Nb, Hf, Ta, Li, Be, V, P, U and Mn in geological sample is beneficial to the study of geological environments such as geochemistry and petrogenesis. The sample was treated by alkali fusion with sodium peroxide and acidification with hydrochloric acid. ⁶Li was selected to correct Li and Be. ¹⁰³Rh was selected to correct V, P, Zr, Nb and Mn. ¹⁸⁵Re was selected to correct Ta, Hf and U. The method for determination of these elements in geological sample by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was established. The sample fusion experiments showed that 0.100 0 g of geological sample could be fully fused by 1.0 g of sodium peroxide in muffle furnace at 750 ℃ for 8 min. The matrix interference tests showed that the mass concentration of Na⁺ in testing solution was less than 1.0 mg/mL after dilution for 10 times, and the interference caused could be ignored. The interference of major elements in sample including K, Ca, Fe, Mg and Al could be also ignored. The standing time of testing solution was optimized, which should be within 1 d. Under the optimized experimental conditions, the linear correlation coefficients of calibration curves for ten testing elements were all higher than 0.999. The limits of detection were between 0.10 μg/g and 2.64 μg/g. The limits of quantification were between 0.33 μg/g and 8.80 μg/g. The contents of Zr, Nb, Hf, Ta, Li, Be, V, P, U and Mn in certified reference materials of soil, stream sediments and rocks as well as actual samples were determined according to the experimental methods. The results showed that the determination results of certified reference materials were basically consistent with the certified values. The relative standard deviations (RSD) were not more than 4.8%, and the relative errors (RE) were not more than 5.1%. The RSDs of actual samples were all not more than 4.9%.
