Elemental analysis of the total carbon, total nitrogen and total sulphur on mumiyo deposit DallSW1830 from Dallmann Berge

Elemental analysis of the total carbon (C), total nitrogen (N) and total sulphur (S) content was measured with a vario microcube (Elementar, Germany) on 2 mm thick sub-samples of the profile PRM8-A. Due to the sticky consistence of the material the samples could not be homogenized prior to analysis and each sample was measured in four replicates of c. 2.5 mg (± standard deviation of the mean).Contents of total carbon, total nitrogen and total sulphur %, reported values are mean values of 4 replicates and standard deviation of the mean.
