The Isotope Geochemistry of Zinc and Copper

TL;DR: Chaboy et al. as mentioned in this paper showed that the symmetry of the hexaaqua complex of Cu(H2O)62+ has a Jahn-Teller distortion effect (Sherman 2001; Bersuker 2006), whereby the two Cu-O distances of the vertical axial bond (Cu-Oax) are longer than four Cu O distances in the equatorial plane (Cu Oax).

Fractionation of Cu and Zn isotopes during adsorption onto amorphous Fe(III) oxyhydroxide: Experimental mixing of acid rock drainage and ambient river water

TL;DR: Fractionation of Cu and Zn isotopes during adsorption of the metal onto amorphous ferric oxyhydroxide was examined in experimental mixtures of metal-rich acid rock drainage and relatively pure river water and during batch adaption experiments using synthetic ferrihydrite.

The oceanic mass balance of copper and zinc isotopes, investigated by analysis of their inputs, and outputs to ferromanganese oxide sediments

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the biogeochemical cycling of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) isotopes in the ocean and presented estimates for the isotopic composition of the inputs to the oceans based on new data presented here and published data.
