Rhenium isotopic and geochemical characterisation across lithospheric and surface processes across four global regions, 2019-2024

Hilton, R. | Dickson, A. | Dellinger, M. | Stow, M. | Wang, W. | Prytulak, J. | Nowell, G.

2025

The data resource collates novel measurements of the rhenium isotope geochemistry of various materials measured between 2019 and 2024. The data were collected as part of NERC funded research (NE/T001119) aiming to constrain the behavior of the rhenium isotope system at Earth's surface....
