TY - CONF A1 - Oelze, Marcus A1 - Vogl, Jochen T1 - A second anchor Fe isotope reference material based on high purity Fe metal for the exhausted IRMM-014 N2 - Iron isotopes are used in a variety of fields from e.g., geologic question to medical applications. Measurements of iron isotopes are usually performed as delta measurements to an artificial based delta zero standard. In the case of Fe isotopes is that delta zero standard IRMM-014, a pure Fe metal. Unfortunately, that conventional delta zero reference material defining the 56/54Fe scale is out of stock and therefore unavailable. To overcome that situation and fulfill the need for laboratories that measure Fe isotope on a regular basis we will provide a set of solutions with IRMM-014 and a second anchor point for Fe isotope ratio measurements that is based on a pure Fe metal. This new second anchor point, a high purity Fe from BAM, will be calibrated against IRMM-014 and can be used as bracketing standard or as reference value for stable Fe isotope measurements. We are in the good situation that BAM ordered a large stock of IRMM-014 several years ago. That stock of IRMM-014 Fe cubes and IRMM-014 Fe wires will be dissolved in 6M HCl in a large quantity. The new anchor point, the high purity Fe metal, that is commercially available at BAM, is a pure Fe metal with only trace amounts of impurities. The high purity BAM material will also be dissolved in 6M HCl in large quantity. Several aliquots of both solutions will be measured on the Neptune Plus MC-ICP-MS to define this second anchor point with a low uncertainty. Further will we send several aliquots of both solutions to different laboratories to also measure this second anchor point of high purity Fe on the 56/54Fe scale. We will report the values of that study on BAM high purity Fe and will provide a guide for scale conversion to the IRMM-014 scale and for uncertainty calculation to use that new anchor point instead of the exhausted IRMM-014.
