Reliable measurement of Ca isotope-amount ratios is challenging considering limited Ca amounts and significant procedural blank levels. In this study, Ca purification was performed using the DGA Resin, optimized for low procedural blanks and separation of Ca from matrix elements and isobaric interferences (Na, Mg, K, Ti, Fe, Ba), while maintaining quasi-quantitative recoveries which are sufficient since a 42Ca– 48Ca double-spike (DS) was applied. Ca isotopic analysis was performed using multicollector thermal ionization mass spectrometry (MC TIMS). The obtained procedural Ca blank of ≤10 ng enables processing of limited Ca amounts down to 670 ng. Data reduction of the measured Ca isotope-amount ratios was performed using an in-house developed software solving the DS algorithm. Data quality was improved by extension of equilibration time of the sample-DS mixture and implementation of a normalization strategy for raw isotopic data.

Ca isotope-amount ratios of the reference material NIST SRM 1400 (bone ash), NIST SRM 1486 (bone meal), GBW07601 (human hair), and IAPSO (seawater) were in good agreement within uncertainty with literature data.
