Research in geochemistry is conducted using standard as well as modified commercial instruments. We also design and build new instruments for particular problems.

	Instrumentation Development in Geochemistry Instruments for atmospheric studies Selected-ion chemical ionization mass spectrometer for use on research aircraft.
	Geochemical Facilities and Resources Dedicated Stable Isotope Mass Spectrometers Mass Spectrometers for Multi-Element Analysis Infrared Spectrometer Optical Spectrometers Raman Spectrometer ICP-MS in Geochemistry ICP-MS in Environmental Engineering Laser spectrometers for gas-phase measurements Apparatus for mineral synthesis
	Division Analytical Facility Electron Microprobe SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) XRD (X-ray Powder Diffractometer) EDS-XRF (Energy-Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometer)
