Powders, solutions and residues from rock samples collected in the Ellsworth Mountains, 2005-2006

Powders, solutions and residues related to erratic and bedrock samples collected in the Ellsworth Mountains during the 2005-2006 field season. For each of the rock samples analysed in the lab, a (variable) number of laboratory stages are created, including sawing and crushing residues, pure quartz separates, chemical solutions, and AMS (Accelerator Mass Spectrometry) targets.

Statement
The quality of the samples is excellent as the majority of the lithologies we sampled were quartz-rich sandstones and quartzites. Initial laboratory results confirmed that these samples contain abundant material for analysis.
