Using advanced geochemical tools to study our ever-changing world.

Hi - you have arrived at the web site of the Isotope Geochemistry Group at the University of Melbourne. Our official University page can be found here but one page is not enough....so this site is currently the best location to find the most recent news about our group and the things that we do. Follow the navigation links above and enjoy your visit.

We are very excited to announce the arrival and installation of our brand new MC-ICPMS the Nu Sapphire! The Nu Sapphire is a MC-ICPMS equipped with a collision cell that allows for removal of isobaric interferences. This addition coupled with its larger detector array and more detector options, will allow us to broaden our horizons and expand our capabilities. This instrument replaces our 20+ year old Nu Plasma 1 Nu007, which will be sorely missed!
