Chemical Separation of Uranium and Precise Measurement of <sup>234</sup>U/<sup>238</sup>U and <sup>235</sup>U/<sup>238</sup>U Ratios in Soil Samples Using Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry

A new chemical separation has been developed to isolate uranium (U) using two UTEVA columns to minimize iron and thorium interferences from high background area soil samples containing minerals like monazites and ilmenite. The separation method was successfully verified in some certified reference m...
