Overview

This study demonstrates improved detection of gold and REE in water, suggesting spICP-MS enhances mineral exploration.

Key Points

  • Single particle ICP-MS effectively detects gold and REE in complex hydrogeochemical environments, improving exploration methodologies.
  • Detection of nanoparticulate gold and pathfinder elements was achieved, leading to stronger geochemical anomalies compared to traditional methods.
  • This study uses single particle ICP-ToF-MS, revealing nanoscale REE mineral grains from oxidized carbonate zones in water samples.
  • The findings highlight the novel application of spICP-MS for detecting concealed mineralization which may yield significant geological insights.
