Multiple-sulfur isotope effects during photolysis of carbonyl sulfide
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a 150 W Xe arc lamp to measure the de-termine sulfur isotope effects during ultraviolet photolysis of carbonyl sulfide to carbon monoxide (CO) and elemental sulfur (S 0 ).

Primary origin of marginal Ni-Cu-(PGE) mineralization in layered intrusions: Δ33S evidence from The Platreef, Bushveld, South Africa
Elizabeth R. Sharman,Sarah C. Penniston-Dorland,Judith A. Kinnaird,Paul A. M. Nex,Michael Brown,Boswell A. Wing +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used mass-independent fractionation of sulfur isotopes to evaluate the sulfur budget of the Platreef horizon of the northern limb of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa.

Artefacts in the speciation of sulfides in anoxic sediments
TL;DR: In this paper, sulfide species such as AVS and CRS were determined in anoxic sediment and their transformation, their loss and their effect on metal speciation were evaluated. But the experiments were concentrated on the determinands which are commonly used or dedicated to the determination of sulfides and metals, with emphasis on artefacts potentially introduced during sediment sample storage, drying or oxygen contamination.

Re-Os isotopic variations in carbonaceous pelites hosting the Duluth Complex: implications for metamorphic and metasomatic processes associated with mafic magma chambers
TL;DR: A suite of sulfidic and carbonaceous pelitic country rocks of the Virginia Formation (country rock to the Duluth Complex), ranging from unmetamorphosed through strongly recrystallized and partially melted xenoliths, have been analyzed for their Os isotopic composition as mentioned in this paper.

Carbon and sulfur isotopic compositions of organic carbon and pyrite in sediments from the Transvaal Supergroup, South Africa
Harald Strauss,Nicolas J. Beukes +1 more
TL;DR: Sedimentary organic matter and pyrite from parts of the lower Transvaal Supergroup and few samples from the Olifantshoek Group have been studied for their carbon and sulfur isotopic compositions, respectively as discussed by the authors.

Sedimentary pyrite formation: An update
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that organic matter appears to be the major control on pyrite formation in normal (non-euxinic) terrigenous marine sediments where dissolved sulfate and iron minerals are abundant.

The Sulfur Cycle
TL;DR: The authors' model of the sulfur cycle can draw some conclusions that man is now contributing about one half as much as nature to the total atmospheric burden of sulfur compounds, but by A.D. 2000 he will be contributing about as much, and in the Northern Hemisphere alone he is more than matching nature.

Pyrite: Its Rapid Formation in a Salt Marsh and Its Importance In Ecosystem Metabolism
TL;DR: Pyrite formation in salt-marsh peat occurs more rapidly than is generally thought for any natural system, and the rates of sulfate reduction and ecosystem respiration may be grossly underestimated.
Book
Rock and mineral analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an up-to-date treatment of the problems associated with the analysis of geological materials, including the requesite steps from selection of the sample and choice of elements to the facilities needed, preparation of sample, methods for the determination of individual constituens and reporting of the results of the analysis.
