Other constraints

The dataset has been formally approved by BGS for access by external clients under a BGS Digital Data Licence, issued via BGS's IPR Section. The dataset must not be provided to, or be accessible by, an external client until the IPR Section confirms that signed licence documentation is in place. Refer to the IPR Section (DigitalLE@bgs.ac.) if further advice is required.. Constraint applies until 2025-04-30

Other constraints

Either: (i) the dataset is made freely available, e.g. via the Internet, for a restricted category of use (e.g. educational use only); or (ii) the dataset has not been formally approved by BGS for access and use by external clients under licence, but its use may be permitted under alternative formal arrangements; or (iii) the dataset contains 3rd party data or information obtained by BGS under terms and conditions that must be consulted in order to determine the permitted usage of the dataset. Refer to the BGS staff member responsible for the creation of the dataset if further advice is required. He / she should be familiar with the composition of the dataset, particularly with regard to 3rd party IPR contained in it, and any resultant use restrictions. This staff member should revert to the IPR Section (ipr@bgs.ac.uk ) for advice, should the position not be clear.

Statement

Sample imaging and chemical mapping was conducted on polished thin sections with a ca 20 nm carbon coating using a Zeiss Sigma variable pressure field-emission-gun scanning electron microscope (VP-FEGSEM) equipped with an Oxford Instruments Ultimax 170 mm2 Silicon Drift Detector Energy dispersive detector, based in the geoanalytical electron microscopy and spectroscopy (GEMS) facility at the University of Glasgow. Backscattered electron (BSE) imaging and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) were conducted in high vacuum using high current mode and accelerating voltage of 20 kV, working distance of 8.0 mm and aperture of 60 μm. The EDX mapping data were acquired and processed using the Oxford Instrument AZtec software. All EDX maps shown have had the AZtec true map function applied, that removes background and artefacts, and resolves issues with element peak overlaps. The raw data files (.dat files) must not be moved in terms of their location relative to the AZtec file (.oip file). The .dat files cannot themselves be opened, but opening the .oip file (using AZtec software from Oxford Instruments) reads the .dat files.
