Trace element contents for the <2 μm, 2-20 μm and bulk fractions from LGM European loess sequences

Trace element contents in microg/g measured on the <2 microns, 2-20 microns size fractions and bulk samples from LGM European loess sequences. Samples were crushed in an agate mortar and trace element concentrations were measured following Chauvel et al. (2011). Reproducibility for trace element analyses is better than 5% based on repeat measurements, and the accuracy is also better than 5%, based on the analyses of international rock standards (JSD-1, JSD-3 and LKSD-1.

Chemical composition and Sr, Nd, Pb isotope ratios of mafic igneous rocks from the Ordovician Saxothuringian basin east of and within the post-Devonian Müncheberg massif, NE Bavaria, Germany

The sampling area is located east (E-domain) and west (W-domain) of the Münchberg gneiss massif, NE Bavaria. Germany. Major and trace element compositions and Sr, Nd, and Pb isotope composition of a selected subset of Ordovician samples and post- Devonian samples of mafic igneous rocks are documented in the Table 1 'E-domain'. Sr, Nd, and Pb isotope composition of selected mafic igneous rocks from the W-domain of Ordovicician, Silurian, and Devonian age are documented together with the previously analysed Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd, U-Th-Pb concentrations (Höhn et. al., 2018, doi:10.1007/s00531-017-1497-2) in the Table 2 'W-domain'.

Analysis of Mn-deposits from the Alps

In the aftermath of the Triassic?Jurassic extinction event, extant slopes of drowned alpine reef buildups were recolonized in patches by predominantly non-rigid sponges. Just a few localities in the Northern Calcareous Alps display autochthonous communities of these rarely in situ-preserved species and provide an insight into their taphonomy. In a depression of the former Triassic reef surface at Steinplatte (Austria) lyssacinosid sponges formed spicular mats during starved Liassic sedimentation. They settled on detrital soft- or firmgrounds that were successively dominated by spicules of their own death predecessors and infiltrated sediments. Skeletal remains and adjacent micrites were partly fixed by microbially induced carbonate precipitation due to the decay of sponge organic matter. The irregular compaction of the sediment as well as volume reduction during microbialite formation resulted in syndiagenetic stromatactis cavities. Subjacent to the spiculite allochthonous sediments fill up sinkholes and crevices of the rough Triassic relief. In order to define the Lower Liassic paleoenvironment, the sediments and associated ferromanganese crusts were analysed by X-ray fluorescence and ICP-mass spectrometry. The distribution pattern of major and trace elements show usual contents of hydrogeneous Fe/Mn-precipitates. In contrast, the results of rare earth element analyses revealed a negative Cerium anomaly within the crusts and the spiculite at Steinplatte locality. In Lower Liassic sediments of the Northern Calcareous Alps such an anomaly has been proved for the first time. Most likely it is related to higher precipitation rates caused by microbial mats or possibly by a minor influx of hydrothermal fluids. Carbon and oxygen stable isotopes of the same sequence show primary signals of a small negative ?13Ccarb excursion that extends from Hettangian to Lower Sinemurian time.

X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) measurements of floodplain sediments from NEP 1, NEP 2 and NEP 3 from Nördlingen, southern Germany

This data set presents bulk sample-based X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) measurements. For XRF sample preparation freeze-dried sediments from silt-clay overbank deposits of the Eger floodplain in Southern Germany were seaved (2mm) to discard the gravel fraction and large organic matter. Further homogenization was undertaken by grinding the samples with PM 200 planetary ball mill from Retsch. 8 g of sediment sample (<30 µm) homogenized in the ball mill were mixed with 2 g of special wax and homogenized with a shaker. Uniform pellets were formed using a Vaneox press at 20 t for 2 minutes. Elemental analyses were conducted in a He atmosphere using a Spectro Xepos energy dispersive XRF spectrometer.

Whole-rock chemical analyses from the Heldburg dyke swarm

In the project "Geochemistry and geochronology of the Heldburg dyke swarm, Central European Volcanic Province" we conducted geochemical and geochronological investigations on mafic dykes and former magma chambers of the Heldburg dyke swarm. The latter is part of the Central European Volcanic Province and positioned in the South of Thuringia and the North of Bavaria (Germany). It consists of several hundred mafic NNE-SSW striking dykes with an usual thickness of < 1m and few former magma chambers. All of these have an atypical position within the Central European Volcanic Province located away from Hercynian massifs and major rift axes and were hitherto poorly investigated. In general, 10 different locations of the Heldburg dyke swarm were sampled for whole-rock analyses and 4 different locations were chosen for determining their apatite and zircon ages. The fieldwork was conducted between March 2022 and December 2023. The analytical work was done between June 2022 and April 2024 at the Department of Geodynamics and Geomaterials Research, University of Würzburg (samples preparation, X-ray fluorescence), at the GeoZentrum Nordbayern, University of Erlangen (trace element contents, LA-ICP-MS) and at FIERCE (Frankfurt Isotope & Element Research Center), Goethe University Frankfurt (apatite and zircon ages, LA-ICP-MS). Here, we present the full dataset of 55 whole-rock chemical analyses (X-ray fluorescence, LA-ICP-MS) from ten locations of the Heldburg dyke swarm.

Ahr river overbank sediments: XRF elemental composition data set (Mayschoß-Transect, core Ahr2022-1_1, Ahr2022-1_2, Ahr2022-2_1, Ahr2022-2_2)

The elemental composition of samples from four sediment cores from the Mayschoß floodplain (Ahr river) was determined by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF). In the first step of preparation, large organic matter and pebbles were removed from freeze-dried samples (8 g) by sieving (2 mm). Subsequently, the samples were powdered and homogenised with vibratory Retsch mill MM 200. The uniform pills for the analysis were pressed with a carbon-based binding agent by Vaneox press at 20 t for 2 min. The elemental analysis of 50 elements was conducted in a He atmosphere using a Spectro Xepos energy dispersive XRF spectrometer. The surface elevation was extracted from Brell et al. (2023).

Inorganic geochemistry of sedimentary rocks in the catchment of river Thuringian Saale during the last 600 Ma

A literature retrieval was performed for whole rock geochemical analyses of sedimentary, magmatic and metamorphic rocks in the catchment of River Thuringian Saale for the past 600 Ma. Considering availability and coincidence with paleontological an facies data the following indicators seem suitable to detect environmental and climatic changes: biogenic P for Paleoproductivity, STI Index for weathering intensity, Ni/Co-ratio for redox conditions, relative enrichments of Co, Ba and Rb versus crustal values for volcanic activity at varying differentiation. The Mg/Ca-ratio as proxy for salinity is applicable in evaporites. The binary plot Nb/Y versus Zr/TiO2 indicates a presently eroded volcanic level of the Bohemian Massif as catchment area for the Middle Bunter, whereas higly differentiated volcanics provided source material for Neoproterozoic greywackes. A positive Eu-anomaly is limited to the Lower Bunter and implies mafic source rocks perhaps formerly located in the Bohemian Massif.

XRF data sheet: Weiße Elster overbank silt-clay deposition (SC40 core, Salsitz transect)

We used stationary XRF spectrometry for analysing elemental composition of Holocene floodplain sediments from a recovered core form the Weiße Elster floodplain. For XRF sample preparation freeze-dried catchment sediments (8 g) were seaved (2mm) to discard the gravel fraction and large organic matter. Further homogenization was undertaken by grinding the samples with a vibratory Retsch mill MM 200. We created uniform pellets by pressing the powdered samples with a carbon-based binding agent in a Vaneox press at 20 t for 2 min. We conducted elemental analyses in a He atmosphere using a Spectro Xepos energy dispersive XRF spectrometer. The total drilling depth of SC40 core is 275 cm. We conducted stationary XRF measurements of 52 samples.
