Description

Method for separating boron from gypsum mineral and/or anhydrite mineral and method for measuring boron isotope
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of ore element separation and determination, in particular to a method for separating boron from gypsum mineral and/or anhydrite mineral and a method for determining boron isotope.
Background
The evaporite is a mineral sequence combination of evaporation and precipitation of water bodies such as sea and lake water and the like, comprises carbonate, sulfate and chloride type salt minerals, is an important raw material for human production and life, and is a good carrier for researching environmental change. The scale of the deposition of the evaporite, the economic value and the reflected environmental information are mainly controlled by the source of diagenetic substances and the evolution process thereof, so that the source and the evolution history of the evaporite can be effectively traced and inverted according to the composition characteristics of elements and isotopes in the minerals of the evaporite.
Boron is used as an easily soluble element and is mainly distributed in water bodies such as oceans, lakes and the like and various rocks, and along with evaporation and crystallization of the water bodies, the boron is added into evaporated rock minerals in different forms. Boron has11B and10b is a good tracer of the source of the substance, because the relatively large mass difference of the isotopes results in a wide variation range (-70% o to + 75% o) in different plastids. For example, researchers have studied the presence of boron in the salt of the khaki salt lake and its isotopic distribution characteristics (-0.35% to + 5.84%), with results indicating significant land-phase deposition characteristics; other scientists judge the ore phase deposition by studying the boron isotope composition characteristics (+19.91 ‰ - +31.01 ‰) of the salt of the careless basin and the borate minerals. Therefore, the boron isotope has important application value in the geological significance of the evaporite. But there are deficiencies in that the composition of the boron sulfate isotope in the evaporite sequence has been poorly studied.
Sulfate is an important component of evaporite and is characterized by its production in various geological times, in which gypsum (CaSO) is used4·2H2O) and anhydrite (CaSO)4) The method is mainly used, gypsum is crystallized when one liter of seawater is evaporated, meanwhile, component information of brine mother liquor is contained in the gypsum deposition process, the method is a good carrier for inverting brine evolution, and by researching boron isotope composition and fractionation mechanism of salt minerals, the mineralization rules of different evaporation rock deposits and ancient climate and ancient environment reconstruction can be revealed. Therefore, the research on the composition characteristics, occurrence state and geological application prospect of the boron isotope in the sulfate has important significance.
The general evaporite can be dissolved by using the boron-removing ionized water or the dilute hydrochloric acid, and then the subsequent treatment is carried out. However, unlike the above evaporite minerals, gypsum and/or anhydrite minerals are hardly soluble in water and have a solubility of less than 10mg/mL, 8 in hydrochloric acid (1mol/L to 2mol/L) at 25 ℃The solubility in 0 ℃ hydrochloric acid (1-2.28 mol/L) is 31.67mg/mL at the maximum, and the gypsum solubility is reduced as the hydrochloric acid concentration increases. While boron is likely to be BCl in concentrated hydrochloric acid3The higher the evaporation temperature, the more pronounced the evaporation. Before mass spectrometry, the boron solution should generally not be concentrated by evaporation after addition of mannitol to a temperature of more than 70 ℃. Therefore, 100mL to 200mL of hydrochloric acid (1mol/L) is required for completely decomposing 1g to 2g of gypsum and/or anhydrite samples, which increases the subsequent boron ion extraction and separation steps, causes cumulative loss of boron content, and if the samples are not completely decomposed, causes the boron content to be too low to meet the test requirements, or the crystal surfaces of the samples are corroded and crystal lattices are not completely decomposed, thereby seriously affecting the recovery rate of boron, even causing boron isotope fractionation. The dissolution of the sample with nitric acid will seriously interfere with the mass spectrometric determination of the boron isotope, so that11B/10The B ratio is lower. Therefore, the general acidolysis evaporite sample method can not effectively dissolve gypsum and/or anhydrite minerals to separate and extract boron in the gypsum and/or anhydrite minerals, or can cause great influence on the recovery rate of subsequent boron, boron isotope fractionation, boron isotope mass spectrometry and the like, and is not beneficial to analysis and application of boron isotope composition characteristics.
Based on the above analysis, it is necessary to adopt a new method for separating and extracting boron and measuring boron isotope in gypsum mineral and/or anhydrite mineral to solve the above problems.

Wherein, the boron specific resin exchange column adopts Amberlite IRA 743; the anion and cation mixed resin Exchange column adopts Ion Exchange II and Dowex50 WX 8.
The embodiment also provides a method for measuring a boron isotope, which comprises the following steps:
sampling: taking a neutral boron-containing solution, wherein the neutral boron-containing solution is obtained by the method for separating boron from the gypsum mineral;
and (3) treatment: adding mannitol and cesium carbonate into a neutral boron-containing solution, wherein the quantity ratio of mannitol to substances of boron content in the neutral boron-containing solution is 1:1, the quantity ratio of boron elements in the neutral boron-containing solution to substances of cesium element in the cesium carbonate is 1:1, and evaporating and concentrating the mixture in an oven to 0.1mL to obtain a sample of a boron isotope to be detected;

In this example, a method for measuring a sample of a boron isotope to be measured by mass spectrometry employs reference 1 (heroic et al]The method described in Mass Spectrometry, 2013,34(2): 75-81); it adopts 308/309 double Faraday cup system, static double receiving to obtain mass-to-charge ratio 308: (133Cs2 10B16O2 +) And mass to charge ratio 309: (133Cs2 11B16O2 +) Ion current intensity of I308And I309Calculating to obtain I309And I308Ratio R of309/308Then proceed to17O is corrected to obtain11B and10abundance ratio of two isotopes of B: (11B/10B)Sample (I),(11B/10B)Sample (I)=R309/308-0.00078。
For isotopic composition of boron11B represents, calculated according to the following formula:
11B(‰)=[(11B/10B)sample (I)/(11B/10B)Standard of merit-1]×1000
Wherein the standard substance is NIST SRM951, (A), (B), (C), (11B/10B)Standard of meritMeasured value of (a) is 4.05537 ± 0.00004(2 σ, n ═ 4); wherein, 2 σ: represents the standard deviation between the mean values of boron isotope measurement results of 1 sample per time; n is 4: the boron isotope of the sample was measured 4 times.
In this embodiment, after the phase transformation and decomposition of the gypsum mineral sample in the reaction step, other ions are simultaneously present in the generated boron-containing solution, and the boron content is directly measured, so that the ICP-OES atomizer is blocked or the measurement signal of boron is shifted due to the excessively high salinity and the interference effect of the matrix of other ions, and the boron content in the solution is lower than the detection limit of ICP-OES and cannot be measured when the boron solution is diluted (as shown in table 1 below, the detection limit and the lower quantitative limit of boron element of ICP-OES are shown). Therefore, in the separation method of boron in this embodiment, trace boron ions are preferentially enriched by the boron specific resin exchange column in the separation step, and then the ICP-OES is performed to measure the boron content. Although the determination of the low boron content can also be performed by isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry, in the subsequent determination method of the boron isotope in the embodiment, the boron isotope is determined by using mass spectrometry, and mannitol and cesium carbonate are added according to the boron content in the boron isotope sample to be determined before the mass spectrometry, so that the evaporation and ionization conditions for the determination of the boron isotope are ensured, and the volatilization and isotope fractionation of boron are inhibited. Therefore, the boron separation method and the boron isotope determination method developed for gypsum minerals in the embodiment solve the problem of accurate determination of the boron content in low-boron gypsum minerals and/or anhydrite minerals, and can meet the requirement of boron isotope determination.

Effect of different acid-base dissolution experiments on extracting boron from gypsum mineral
In the method for separating boron from gypsum mineral of this example, before and after the reaction with ammonium bicarbonate, XRD diffraction analysis was performed on gypsum and a nascent mineral, respectively. Referring to fig. 3 and 4, fig. 3 is an XRD diffractogram of gypsum mineral before reacting with ammonium bicarbonate, wherein the mass percentage of gypsum is more than 99%; figure 4 is an XRD diffractogram of gypsum mineral after reaction with ammonium bicarbonate, where 92% of the gypsum mineral has been converted to calcium carbonate mineral and a small amount of gypsum coexisting will complete the conversion as the reaction proceeds. Dilute hydrochloric acid (1mol/L) was added to the nascent calcium carbonate mineral and as the reaction proceeded, the carbonate mineral gradually dissolved completely.
By adopting the reaction steps in the boron separation method in the above embodiment, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate and hydrochloric acid are respectively used to replace ammonium bicarbonate in the embodiment to perform a parallel phase transformation experiment on the gypsum mineral. The ICP-OES measurement of the boron content of the converted phase after the boron specific resin is enriched shows that the conversion efficiency of ammonium bicarbonate to boron in gypsum minerals is 0.5122mg/L (shown in the following table 3), which indicates that the decomposition of the gypsum minerals and/or anhydrite minerals and the extraction of boron can be maximally realized by the step.

Boron recovery experiment and full-process boron isotope fractionation
In the experiment, different boron-containing samples are adopted for carrying out boron recovery experiments, wherein the numbers 1 and 2 are common gypsum, the number 3 is a boric acid reagent, the numbers 4, 5 and 6 are analytically pure gypsum, and the number 7 is a boron standard solution (prepared by NIST SRM 951). The recovery experiment was carried out by the whole flow from the purification step to the boron content measurement step of ICP-OES in the above examples, with 1 and 2 each added with 2mL of a boric acid reagent solution (10. mu.g/mL), 4, 5 and 6 each added with 1mL of a boron standard solution (30. mu.g/mL) and a boric acid reagent and a boron standard solution. The boron content of 1 common gypsum is 9.785 mug after the original gypsum is subjected to the whole process, the boron content of the added boric acid reagent is 29.984 mug after the whole process, and the ratio of the difference of the two to the boron content is the recovery rate, and reaches 100.9 percent. Similarly, the recovery rates of the rest samples are 102.2%, 96.76%, 109.75%, 102.08%, 111.42% and 110.75% (see table 4), and seven groups of experiments show that the full process from the purification step to the step of testing the boron content of ICP-OES has higher recovery efficiency of boron in the gypsum sample, can meet the requirement of boron isotope determination in the sample on the boron content, and simultaneously is the fundamental guarantee that the boron isotope in the full process is not fractionated.

Of individual gypsum samples (Lajing, Hexi)11The repeated measurement results of the B value have certain difference, but the B value still has important significance for tracing the source, and the results of the samples are obtained11B value and marine evaporite11The distribution range of the B value is more consistent with +18.2 ‰ -31.7 ‰, which indicates that it is most likely to be a marine phase evaporation cause, and this is in connection with Lajing and Hexi Gypsum Fibrosum34S value and borate of sylvite mining area where Laos anhydrite is located11The B value is consistent, and the boron isotope composition of the (hard) gypsum mineral can well trace the source of the evaporite deposit.
