borttagen - 40Ar/39Ar Geochronology Laboratory

The 40Ar/39Ar method is a tremendously versatile and powerful geochronometer which has been used to date K-bearing rocks and minerals as young as a few 10’s of thousands of years to the oldest rocks on Earth. Argon for 40Ar/39Ar analysis can be released either by step-heating a sample (single grain or rock aggregate) using a furnace or a defocused laser and by in-situ Laser Ablation of a small ≥ 2

Equipment

The main components of the 40Ar/39Ar lab at the University of Lund consist of a Micromass-5400 Gas Source Mass Spectrometer with a faraday and an electron multiplier. A custom designed and built UHV gas metal extraction line, which contains two SAES C50-ST101 Zr-Al getters and a cold finger cooled to ca –155°C by a Polycold P100 cryogenic refrigeration unit. For gas extraction, the 40Ar/39Ar labor

Mineral Separation Laboratory

Efficient techniques for mineral separation are important in almost all geochronological studies. From year 2000, we have used the so called “water-based technique (pdf, new tab)” for separation of baddeleyite (and zircon). Baddeleyite is a reliable geochronometer for dating the crystallization of mafic and other silica-undersaturated rocks. The technique is based on the observation that small gra

Equipment

1. Circa 0,5 kg sample is sawed in 1-cm thick slices using an ordinary slab saw.    2. After washing and drying, the slices are reduced in size to cm-large pieces by using a small sledge hammer.   3. In order to get a very fine-grained sample (almost powder), we use a small swing mill.   4. After adding some water, the sample is loaded in ca. 50 g portions on a Wilfley-Holman 700 water-shaking tab

Palaeomagnetic Laboratory

Palaeomagnetic and mineral magnetic data are used in a wide variety of Earth science disciplines. Reconstructions of the direction and intensity of the Earth's geomagnetic field can be produced from studies of igneous rocks, sediments and ceramic artefacts. These reconstructions can be used to (i) correlate and date geological archives and (ii) help us understand how the geomagnetic field is gener

Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory

The Radiocarbon Dating Laboratory in Lund performs dating on geological and archaeological samples. Examples of material that we date are wood, charcoal, peat, macrofossils, bone and marine shells. The analyses are based on Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS).Natural 14C can be used in numerous applications, of which radiocarbon dating, with the possibility for dating back to about 50000 years, is
