Sažetak
Development of new techniques, which enable simultaneous determination of large number of elements in environmental samples, confronts the analysts with certified reference materials that do not contain all elements of interest. In this paper the concentrations of 46 major and trace elements, including rare earths, in one soil (NCS DC 77302 also known as GBW 07410) and five sediment (Metranal-1, IAEA 405, MESS-3, NCS DC 73309 also known as GBW 07311 and NCS DC 75301 also known as GBW 07314) certified reference materials determined by high-resolution inductively coupled mass spectrometry are presented. Selected certified materials represent a cross section of geological matrices often analyzed in environmental studies. Measured elements include certified elements, elements listed with information values as well as new elements missing in the certificates, including REEs and some other elements. The REE + Y concentrations of the river sediment reference material Metranal-1 are reported for the first time. Results obtained are in agreement with available certified or informative values.
