In 1955 the third (?) mass spectrometer in the world (maybe for geochronology?) was purchased by Oxford University for the determination of the oldest rocks… at the grand price of £10,000. Apparently the determination will have “no immediate practical application” but it was beautiful…

Andi Smith and Chris Bengt (BGS) travelled to the Philippines for Chris’s PhD fieldwork at Lake Bulusan, Sorsogon Province. The core material will shed light on phosphorus dynamics and the role volcanic eruptions play in fertilising the surrounding forests.
