Abstract: The high precision measurement of isotopic ratios for micro-geological samples has become very important in the geological and environmental sciences. Recently developed solid-source thermal ionization mass spectrometers are highly precise and sensitive, and are playing a crucial role in isotopic geochronology and geochemistry. This paper reports analytical data obtained from standard material solutions using an IsoProbe-T mass spectrometer. Measurements on the Sr standard material NBS987 and Nd standard material Ames yielded mean ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr and ¹⁴³Nd/¹⁴⁴Nd ratio values of 0.710 241 8± 0.000 005 1 and 0.512 148 4±0.000 002 9, respectively, with an internal precision better than 0.000 3%. Measurements using a small amount of the Sr standard material solution NBS987 (0.3-1 ng) yielded an internal precision significantly better than 0.003%. Combining chemical separation procedures having low blank, measurements of micro-geological samples have successively been achieved. This combination of low-blank chemical procedures and the use of a high precision mass spectrometer will potently promote applications of single-grain geochronology and isotopic tracer on magmatic rocks, metamorphic rocks, ore deposits and tectonites.
