Clean air chemical laboratory
Two class-10000 clean labs with class-100 laminar flow work-benches are used for ion exchange and extraction chromatography separations of respectively (i) U-Pb from zircons (and other U-rich minerals) and (ii) Pb, Sr, Nd and Cl from inorganic and organic matrices. Isotopic ratios of the above elements are subsequently measured by Thermal Ionization Mass Spectrometry (TIMS). The laboratory was constructed by MK Versuchsanlagen, D-35325 Mücke-Gerlau.
