There are several departmental research and analytical lab facilities available for use by researchers in Earth Sciences and external users from other departments for a fee. Technical staff are highly experienced and knowledgable in a variety of techniques to assist researchers and to maintain the instruments.
Current departmental facilities include:
- Electron Probe Microanalyser (EPMA)
- Laser Ablation-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) Laboratory
- Powder X-Ray Diffraction (XRD)
- Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)
- Sample Preparation Laboratories
- Fluid Inclusion Laboratory
Examples of photos and applications of the available departmental analytical facilities are found in the Gallery page.
