Abstract

Four natural gypsum rock samples were prepared and certified for major elements and some trace elements by the Analytical Group of Domtar Inc., Research Centre in Senneville (Montréal), Québec, Canada with the cooperation of Domtar Gypsum Products Laboratory in Caledonia, Ontario, Canada. The analytical round‐robin results received from 29 participating laboratories were statistically evaluated, summarized, and form the basis of this paper. These certified reference materials are primarily intended as calibration standards for the determination of major and minor elements in gypsums and gypsum related minerals and products. As certified gypsum rock samples were not available on the North‐American or world markets, these may be particularly important not only to the gypsum and cement industries, but also to geochemists, geologists and analysts of minerals and ores.
