Over 50 million people in South Asia are exposed to groundwater contaminated with carcinogenic arsenic(III). Photocatalyst-adsorbent composite materials are popularly developed for removing arsenic in a single-step water treatment. Here, As(III) is oxidised to As(V), which is subsequently removed via adsorption. We previously developed a component additive surface complexation model (CA-SCM) to predict the speciation of arsenic adsorbed onto TiO2/Fe2O3 under different environmental conditions, using surface complexes taken from studies of single-phase minerals. In this work, we critically evaluate this approach, using experimental observations of the surface structures of arsenic adsorbed onto TiO2/Fe2O3. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) indicates significant As(III) surface precipitation, and the possible formation of tridentate 3C complexes. EXAFS was unable to identify As binding modes for TiO2 and Fe2O3 surface complexes simultaneously, highlighting the challenge of analysing composite surfaces. FTIR and zeta potential analysis indicate that As(III)-Fe2O3 surface complexes are protonated at neutral pH, whilst As(III)-TiO2, As(V)-Fe2O3 and As(V)-TiO2 surface complexes are negatively charged. Our study confirms the speciation predicted by CA-SCM, particularly As(III) surface precipitation, but also introduces the possibility of tridentate As(III) at acidic pH. This study highlights how experiment and modelling can be combined to assess surface complexation on composite surfaces.

Oxygen is the third most abundant element in the Solar System and the most abundant in the silicate Earth. As the second most electronegative element its concentration in silicate rocks is fixed by the concentrations and oxidation states of the cations to which it bonds as O2−. All of the major cation forming elements in terrestrial silicates have only one oxidation state, except for Fe. Thus, charge balancing with Fe is the only significant reason for variability in the amount of O in silicate rocks. It is difficult to measure differences in the oxygen content of rocks directly and instead it is usually proxied by Fe3+/Fe2+. The Fe3+/Fe2+ of a rock is often used to define an oxygen fugacity (fO2), however, the relationship between Fe3+/Fe2+ and fO2 is not monotonic, as illustrated by the quartz-fayalite-magnetite (QFM) oxygen buffer where at constant fO2 Fe3+/Fe2+ can vary from ~ 0 to 2. Since 1991 the empirical expression of Kress and Carmichael has been used to relate the oxidation state of Fe to fO2, temperature, compo-sition, and pressure. A feature of this expression is the non-ideal dependence of Fe3+/Fe2+ on fO2, suggesting Fe-Fe interactions. However, recent studies have shown that Fe3+/Fe2+ behaves ideally. This has necessitated a refit of the available data. The new expression, for compositions with < 60 wt% SiO2, is log10(Fe3+/Fe2+) = 0.25 ΔQFM – 1.35 + 0.023[CaO] + 0.034[Na2O] + 0.044[K2O] – 0.018[P2O5], where fO2 is in log units relative to QFM (and thus temperature does not need to be specified) and the oxide components are in weight percent. This equation reproduces the data from the Carmichael laboratory better than their original expression and identifies offsets in the literature data that distorted their fit. The average Fe3+/ΣFe (where ΣFe = Fe2+ + Fe3+) value of mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) glasses was found to be 0.10 by XANES spectroscopy, which is consistent with the result of the most recent redox tit

Lattice diffusion coefficients and partition coefficients have been determined for Li, Mg, Al, Sc, Ti, Cr, V, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, In, Lu, Hf, Ta and U in single crystals of natural magnetite as a function of oxygen fugacity (fO2) at 1150 °C and 1 bar by equilibration with a synthetic silicate melt reservoir. Most experiments were run for twelve hours, which was sufficient to generate diffusion profiles from 25 to > 1000 µm in length. The results were checked at one condition with two additional experiments at 66.9 and 161 h. The profiles were analysed using scanning laser-ablation inductively-coupled-plasma mass-spectrometry. Diffusion coefficients (D) were calculated by fitting data from individual element diffusion profiles to the conventional diffusion equation for one-dimensional diffusion into a semi−infinite slab with constant composition maintained in the melt at the interface. Equilibrium magnetite/melt partition coefficients are given by the ratio of the interface concentrations to those in the melt. Plots of log D as a function of log fO2 produce V-shaped trends for all the investigated elements, representing two different mechanisms of diffusion that depend on (fO2)−2/3 and (fO2)2/3. Diffusion coefficients at a given fO2 generally increase in the order: Cr < Mo ≈ Ta < V < Ti < Al < Hf ≈ Nb < Sc ≈ Zr ≈ Ga < In < Lu ≈ Y < Ni < U ≈ Zn < Mn ≈ Mg < Co < Li < Cu. Thus, Cu contents of magnetites are most susceptible to diffusive reequilibration, whereas the original content of Cr should be best preserved.

Reliable geochronology is fundamental to our understanding of planetary evolution and the geological events that have shaped the Earth. Zircon has a robust crystal structure and is a key mineral in geochronological studies because it incorporates small amounts of actinides during growth. Currently, the best physical evidence for the presence of differentiated crust in the first 500 million years of the Earth's history comes from intra-grain isotopic microanalysis of zircon crystals. However, it has been long recognized that isotope systematics in zircon can show great complexity, not only from the presence of multiple stages of growth in single grains, but also from disturbance of accumulated radiogenic Pb during subsequent geological events. Although geochronologists are aware of the problem of Pb mobilization during metamorphism, the nature of mobilization on a submicron scale is not entirely understood, especially where evidence has emerged of inhomogeneity and unsupported radiogenic Pb migration. The recent discovery of nanospheres of metallic radiogenic Pb in zircon from granulites explains, in part, instances of reversely discordant age measurements and irregular counts on Pb isotopes during analysis by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Studies are continuing to reveal the nature of Pb nanospheres, so that possible mechanisms and conditions requisite for their formation can be proposed for testing by future investigations.

Titanomagnetite–melt partitioning of Mg, Mn, Al, Ti, Sc, V, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, Zr, Nb, Mo, Hf and Ta was investigated experimentally as a function of oxygen fugacity (fO2) and temperature (T) in an andesitic–dacitic bulk-chemical compositional range. In these bulk systems, at constant T, there are strong increases in the titanomagnetite–melt partitioning of the divalent cations (Mg2+, Mn2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+) and Cu2+/Cu+ with increasing fO2 between 0.2 and 3.7 log units above the fayalite–magnetite–quartz buffer. This is attributed to a coupling between magnetite crystallisation and melt composition. Although melt structure has been invoked to explain the patterns of mineral–melt partitioning of divalent cations, a more rigorous justification of magnetite–melt partitioning can be derived from thermodynamic principles, which accounts for much of the supposed influence ascribed to melt structure. The presence of magnetite-rich spinel in equilibrium with melt over a range of fO2 implies a reciprocal relationship between a(Fe2+O) and a(Fe3+O1.5) in the melt. We show that this relationship accounts for the observed dependence of titanomagnetite–melt partitioning of divalent cations with fO2 in magnetite-rich spinel. As a result of this, titanomagnetite–melt partitioning of divalent cations is indirectly sensitive to changes in fO2 in silicic, but less so in mafic bulk systems.
