Geochemistry Laboratories

The research done in section 3.1 demands precise and accurate analyses of element concentrations and isotope ratios in a wide range of materials (minerals, rocks, fluids and gas) and on samples as tiny as 1 micron in diameter and with just picograms (10-12 pg) in mass. This work involves a large number of instruments and dedicated laboratories.
The GFZ encourages external collaborations and the laboratories in section 3.1 are heavily used by research students and guest scientists. The procedures for access to the laboratories vary, so please contact the responsible staff scientist (listed in the lab weblink) for the latest information.
The Geochemistry Laboratories are a laboratory complex and consist of several sub-modules. For more details, please see the individual websites.
