Article Abstract

A method for the determination of trace Te in the complex geological samples by hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry using MIBK as extraction reagent was developed. The extraction ability of Te (IV) in the HCl-NaBr-MIBK system and the anti-extraction behavior of Te (IV) in the HCl-KMnO4-MIBK system were studied. Under the optimum extraction condition of 3.6 mol x L(-1) HCl-100 g x L(-1) NaBr, Te (IV) was extracted completely by MIBK, Te (IV) in the MIBK phase was oxidized to Te (VI) with HCl-KMnO4, Te (VI) in the MIBK phase was anti-extracted using water, then the interference elements such as Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Cu, Pb, Co, Ni, Cd, As, Sb, Bi, Hg, Tl and Se for the determination of Te by hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry were eliminated successfully. The detection limit of Te was 1.14 x 10(-4) microg(-1), and the relative standard deviations of Te was 6.84%. The method was applied to complicated geological samples.

Re-Os geochronology for sulfides and organic-rich sediments.

Natl Sci Rev

September 2025

Department of Earth Sciences, Durham University, Durham DH1 3LE, UK.

Rhenium and osmium are both siderophilic and chalcophilic, exhibiting a strong affinity for organic-rich materials. This makes the Re-Os chronometer a valuable complement to geochronometers based on lithophile elements. In this review, we begin by discussing how the elemental abundances and isotopic compositions impact sample selection, analytical strategy, and data interpretation.

Objective: Renibacterium salmoninarum, the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease, poses a major threat to both wild and aquaculture salmonid populations. Traditional detection methods typically involve lethal sampling to collect kidney tissues but are often impractical for species of conservation concern. This study evaluates nonlethal sampling techniques for detecting R.

The distribution of groundwater uranium in Chintamani village, Karnataka, India.

Background: Chintamani village, Chikkaballapura district, Karnataka, India was found to possess high aquifer uranium concentrations. Geologically, Chintamani village is located on bedrock that is rich in elements like potassium (K) that naturally contain high levels of radioactive elements, such as uranium and thorium, due to the presence of alkali-feldspar granites and gneisses. Aquifer depletion has caused the concentration of these elements in groundwater to increase over time, posing a potential health hazard to the residents of Chintamani village.

Dust palliatives are used to reduce fugitive dust in areas susceptible to erosion by wind and rain. In 2015, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) temporarily approved the use of polymer-based dust palliatives during the construction and operation of a solar energy facility and, in 2019, on a mining access road in Clark County, Nevada. The areas treated with palliative are habitat to the desert tortoise.

High natural concentrations of metals in Amazonian soils, combined with rainfall, increase metal availability in rivers and streams. This study objective was the environmental quality of two microbasins using integrated biomarkers in Leporinus friderici. Water, sediment, and fish samples were collected during the rainy and dry seasons from the Parariquara and Potiritá river microbasins, located near an area of mining in Paragominas, Pará, Brazil.
