Major element analyses of whole rocks from Mt. St. Helens

Analyses of major elements (presented as weight percent oxide) in volcanic rocks from Mt. St. Helens, Washington, USA. The data table includes sample descriptions. More detailed sample descriptions are given in Blundy et al., (2008). Blundy, J., Cashman, K.V. and Berlo, K. (2008) Evolving magma storage conditions beneath Mount St. Helens inferred from chemical variations in melt inclusions from the 1980-1986 and current (2004-2006) eruptions, in: Sherrod, D.R., Scott, W.E., Stauffer, P.H. (Eds.), A volcano rekindled: the renewed eruption of Mount St. Helens, 2004-2006, Reston, VA, pp. 755-790.

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
Samples were powdered using agate mills at the Open University. Major elements were determined on fused glass beads prepared using a lithium tetraborate flux (sample to flux ratio 1:5) and trace elements on 32 mm diameter pressed powder pellets prepared using a small quantity of Moviol 8–88 binding agent. Analyses were conducted on a PANalytical Axios Advanced XRF spectrometer at the University of Leicester. Loss-on-ignition (LOI) values were determined for all samples from powders dried overnight at 105 °C, then ignited at 950 °C for 1 h.
