INTRODUCTION

Between 1979 and 1984 a geochemical reconnaissance survey of southern California was undertaken by the U.S. Geological Survey. At the time, the principal focus was on stream sediments and the information they may provide in assessing the mineral potential of the surrounding areas. Upon arriving at the San Joaquin Valley (figure 1) investigators were forced to reevaluate the sample collection methodology, and switch from stream sediments to surface soil samples. The samples were submitted to the laboratory and analyzed using standard mineral assessment methodology.

In 1984, there was renewed interest in samples from the San Joaquin Valley due to observations by the Fish and Wildlife Division that birds at the Kestersen National Wildlife Refuge (KNWR) which is located in the San Joaquin Valley, were being adversely affected by high selenium concentration in the water, sediments and vegetation. It was proposed that selenium was being deposited in the refuge from agricultural return flow waters that, from previous agreements, were being sent to the refuge. In order to evaluate this possibility, and examine the potential long term effects of selenium and other elements in the valley soils, a selected group of samples that were collected as part of the initial California survey were retrieved and resubmitted for chemical analysis. The chemical analyses performed on these samples utilized a variety of trace and major element techniques, including inductively coupled argon plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (major and trace metals) , hydride generation atomic absorption spectroscopy (arsenic and selenium) and cold vapor atomic absorption spectroscopy (mercury). This combination of improved (precision, detection limits) analytical methodology provided investigators with the opportunity to develope a detailed understanding of the geochemical distribution of elements in the valley soils.

FIELD SAMPLING

Soil samples were collected on a 10 x 10 Km grid, with individual locations within the grid identified using random coordinates (figure 2). At each sample site, three individual samples were collected within 100 meters of each other and composited in the field. The collected samples were from the 0- 12 inch soil depth, and the final sample sieved through an 80- mesh screen. Soil samples that were collected underneath a vegetation mat were physically separated from the vegetation, and the vegetation disaggregated to release any residual soil material. Samples (approx. 1 Ib) were then placed in soil samples bags and sent directly to the laboratory.

SAMPLE PREPARATION

Samples were mailed to the Geologic Division Laboratories without any further field drying or crushing. The samples were split using a Jones splitter and submitted directly to the laboratory for chemical analysis.

ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES

The following discussion of analytical techniques provides an overview of the methods used in this study. In addition to the references cited under each method, details for all methods are given in U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1770, (Baedecker, ed. 1987) .

Inductively-Coupled Argon Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICAP)

Samples were analyzed simultaneously for 30 elements (table 1) using ICAP. Each sample (0.200 g) was dissolved, using a low- temperature digestion with concentrated hydrochloric, hydrofluoric, nitric, and perchloric acids (Crock et al. 1983). Lutetium was added at the start of the digestion to serve as an internal standard (5 ppm in the final solution). The acidic sample solution was taken to dryness and the residue was redissolved with 1 mL of aqua regia and then diluted to 10 g. Reagent blanks, reference materials, and sample replicates were all digested by the same procedure and analyzed at the same time as the samples. Lower limits of determination are shown in table 1. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for replicate determinations of most elements is about 5 percent.

Cold vapor Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (CV-AAS)

Cold vapor atomic absorption Spectroscopy was used to determine mercury (Kennedy and Crock 1987). A 0.1 g sample was digested with nitric acid and a 25% (W/V) sodium dichromate solution in an aluminum heating block for three hours at 110 C. The sample is allowed to cool (overnight) and the contents quantitatively transferred to a 16 mm x 100 mm disposable glass test tube. The mass is adjusted to 12.00 g with deionized water.

An aliquot of the sample is removed and combined with a solution of hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by stannous chloride in a continuous flow system to produce a vapor of elemental mercury. The mercury vapor is separated from the aqueous phase using a specially designed phase separator and swept into the cold vapor cell, which is situated in the light path of the atomic absorption spectrometer. Quantification of mercury is performed using a series of external aqueous standards and the appropriate

Page 7: UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR ...continuous flow system to produce a vapor of elemental mercury. The mercury vapor is separated from the aqueous phase using a specially

linear regression procedures. The lower limit of determination is given in table 1. The RSD for the method is about 10 percent.

Continuous-Flow Hydride Generation Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (HG-AAS)

Arsenic and selenium were determined by HG-AAS (Briggs and Crock 1986; Crock and Lichte 1982). One gram of sample was digested with nitric, perchloric, sulfuric and hydrofluoric acids. After digestion, the sample was diluted to 100 mL with 10% hydrochloric acid and allowed to sit overnight, to ensure the conversion of Se-VI to Se-IV. The sample was reacted with sodium borohydride in a continuous flow system to generate the appropriate gaseous hydride compound. The hydride gas was separated from the aqueous phase using a specially designed phase separator, and the gas swept into a quartz atomization cell (Hatfield, D.B. 1987) positioned in the light path of the atomic absorption spectrometer. Arsenic was quantified using a series of external standards and the appropriate liner regression procedure. Selenium was quantified using the method of standard additions. The lower limit of determination for arsenic and selenium are shown in table 1. The RSD for the determination of both elements is about 10 percent.

Combustion Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy (CIRAS)

Total carbon determinations were performed using a Leco model CR12 total carbon analyzer. The sample (0.1 g) is mixed with vanadium pentoxide (2 g) and then placed in a high frequency induction furnace. The sample is heated to 1000-1600 C in an oxygen atmosphere. The carbon dioxide generated during the heating process is swept into a infrared detector after passing through a specially designed scrubbing system. The scrubbing system removes interfering compounds from the gas stream. Instrument calibration is accomplished using standards that closely approximate the analyte concentration and sample matrix. The RSD for the determination of total carbon is 10%.

Semiquantitative Optical Emission Spectroscopy (SQOES)

The quantification of boron in the San Joaquin samples was accomplished using a fluoride-volatilization arc spectrography procedure (Golightly, Dorrzapf, Herman, 1987). The sample is mixed with copper hydroxyfluoride (CuOHF), a volatilization buffer which inhibits the formation of the boron carbide during the operation of the arc. In addition, the buffer provides reactive fluorine, which reacts with sample boron to produce boron trifluoride. The boron trifuloride readily volatilizes out of the electrode and into the high temperature arc column. The

spectra for samples and standards are recorded on a 111-0 photographic emulsion. The transmissions of the boron line at 249.68 nm and the adjacent background are both read for samples and standards. Standards are then plotted and a calibration plot developed which is then used to quantitate the boron in samples.
