Looking for the cooperation from geoscientists having laboratory access/facilities to analyze Oxygen and Sulphur isotopes in delta notation and zircon chemistry by LA-ICP-MS.
The above experimental requirements are a part of exploratory work for probing fertlity status of a newly detected porphyry style mineralization in NE Indian Precambrian shield having all basic signature of mineralization.
I think there are several facilities worldwide to satisfy your needs. Perhaps you could be a bit more specific if you have geographic limitations
I believe Glasgow (Scotland), Monash (Australia) and UC Davis (USA) can perform both, to name a few that come to mind, but I'm not very familiar with stable isotope laboratories
For LA-ICP-MS, I can think of the University of São Paulo (Brazil), Mainz (Germany), Texas (USA), Bern and Lausanne (Switzerland)
These are by no means the only ones available, just some that come to mind. I don't work at a lab, but perhaps this answer will give you an idea of places to contact. I hope you find one that suits your demands, budgets and schedule.
Perhaps Idian Government agencies also have facilities of that kind, but I'm not familiar with that at all.
All the best
Thanks, Dr. Henrique for your reply. Your reply will surely help me. I knocked at almost all the doors but either the laboratories are overcrowded with the samples or don't have specific facilities.
Indian facilities are inadequate to handle. Anyway, I shall try once again.
Regards
Dr. D. Majumdar
There are several labs in Canada to perform such analyses:
- Canadian Centre for Isotopic Microanalysis, U of Alberta
- Geobiology Isotope Lab, U of Toronto, Dept of Geology
- Isotope Science Lab, U of Calgary
also Carleton Univ. and U of Waterloo
