High Pressure Station: Diamond-Anvil-Cell Large Volume Press X-ray Microprobe: XAFS, XRF, fluorescence tomography Diffractometer: surface diffraction inelastic scattering Monochromator: LN2-cooled Si (111) Energy range: 4.5 ā 40keV Large Focusing Mirrors: 1m KB pair Storage Ring, undulator BM Station: tomography, diffraction, DAC, Large Volume Press, bulk XAFS Bending Magnet Beamline: 2nd-generation source, with high energy x-rays (up to 100KeV) 20-Jun-2003 GSECARS XRF/XAFS Microprobe Station Focusing: Kirkpatrick-Baez mirrors: Rh-coated Si, typically using 3x3mm spot sizes, at 50mm from end of mirrors. Incident Beam: LN2 cooled Si (111) Sample Stage: x-y-z stage, 1mm resolution Slits: typically 200 to 300 mm, accepting ~20% of undulator beam at 50m from source. Data Collection: Flexible, custom software for X-Y XRF mapping, and XAFS, based on EPICS. Optical Microscope: 5x to 50x objective to external video system / webcam. Fluorescence detector: 16-element Ge detector / DXP electronics, Lytle Detector, or Wavelength Dispersive Spectrometer 20-Jun-2003 Kirkpatrick-Baez Focusing Mirrors The table-top Kirkpatrick-Baez mirrors use four-point benders and flat, trapezoidal mirrors to dynamically form an ellipsis. They can focus a 300x300mm beam to 1x1mm - a flux density gain of 105. With a typical working distance of 100mm, and an energy-independent focal distance and spot size, they are ideal for micro-XRF and micro-EXAFS. We use Rh-coated silicon for horizontal and vertical mirrors to routinely produce 2x3mm beams for XRF, XANES, and EXAFS. 20-Jun-2003 X-ray Fluorescence Detectors 16 element Ge Detector: energy resolution ~250 eV, which separates most fluorescence lines, and allow a full XRF spectrum (or the windowed signal from several lines) to be collected in seconds. Limited in total count rate (to ~250KHz), so multiple elements (10 to 30) are used in parallel. Detection limits are at the ppm level for XRF. XANES and EXAFS measurements of dilute species (~10ppm) in heterogeneous environments can be measured. Wavelength Dispersive Spectrometer has much better resolution (~20eV), and much smaller solid angle, but can be used for XAS, is able to separate fluorescence lines that overlap with a Ge detector. 20-Jun-2003 Metal Speciation in Hydrothermal Fluid Inclusions John Mavrogenes, Andrew Berry (Australian National University) Hydrothermal ore deposits are important sources of Cu, Au, Ag, Pb, Zn, and U. Metal complexes in high-temperature, highpressure solutions are transported until cooling, decompression, or chemical reaction cause precipitation and concentration in deposits. To further understand the formation of these deposits, the nature of the starting metal complexes need to be determined. XRF and XAFS are important spectroscopic tools for studying the chemical speciation and form of these metal complexes in solution. This is challenging to do at and above the critical point of water (22MPa, 375oC). Fluid inclusions from hydrothermal deposits can be re-heated and used as sample cells for high temperature spectroscopies. Natural Cu and Fe-rich brine / fluid inclusions in quartz from Cu ore deposits from New South Wales, Australia were examined at room temperature and elevated temperatures by XRF mapping and XAFS. 20-Jun-2003 Hydrothermal Fluid Inclusion Measurements Linkham TS1500 Heating Stage. Normally, this can easily heat to 1200C for optical microscopy. We had to take off most of the protective front plates to cut down on background Cu and Fe fluorescence. In the end, we ran the quartz inclusion samples in air, with water flowing, but no heat shielding. 20-Jun-2003 Cu speciation in Hydrothermal Fluid Inclusions XRF Mapping Cu 25oC Fe 25oC Cu 495oC Fe 495oC Understanding the metal complexes trapped in hydrothermal solutions in minerals is key to understanding the formation of ore deposits. Natural Cu and Fe-rich brine and vaporphase fluid inclusions in quartz from Cu ore deposits were examined at room temperature and elevated temperatures by XRF mapping and EXAFS. Initial Expectation: chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) would be precipitated out of solution at low temperature, and would dissolve into solution at high temperature. We would study the dissolved solution at temperature. XRF mapping (2mm pixel size) showed that for large vapor-phase inclusions, a uniform distribution of Cu in solution at room temperature was becoming less uniform at temperature. This was reversible, and seen for multiple inclusions. 20-Jun-2003 Cu XANES: Speciation in Fluid Inclusions XAFS measurements at low and high temperature for the vapor-phase inclusiong were also very different, with a very noticeable differences in the XANES: Low temp: Cu2+ , aqueous solution High temp: Cu1+ , Cl or S ligand. These results are consistent with Fulton et al [Chem Phys Lett. 330, p300 (2000)] study of Cu solutions near critical conditions: Cu2+ solution at low temperature, and Cu1+ associated with Cl at high temperatures. 20-Jun-2003 Cu XAFS in Fluid Inclusions EXAFS from the high temperature phase. Fit to high-temperature (450C) Cu solution in fluid (vapor phase) inclusion: can get good fits with 1 Cl at ~2.09Å and 1 O at ~2.00Å, or 2 Cl at ~2.08Å. This is also consistent with the model of for aqueous Cu1+ of Fulton et al, O 2.35Å Cu2+ O Cl 2.09Å Cu1+ 1.96Å J. A. Mavrogenes, A. J. Berry, M. Newville, S. R. Sutton, Am.
