Oxygen isotope fractionation factors involving cassiterite (SnO 2): II. determination by direct isotope exchange between cassiterite and calcite
Abstract
Direct oxygen isotope fractionation between cassiterite and calcite has been investigated experimentally at 15 kbar with temperature ranging from 800 to 1000°C. Combined with the quartz-calcite fractionation measured with the same technique ( Clayton et al., 1989), the calcite-cassiterite and quartz-cassiterite oxygen isotope fractionations can be expressed as:
