Element Fragment #1 (µg/g, ppm) Fragment #2 (µg/g, ppm) Fragment #3
U 204,179 15,659 924,872
235U/238U *** 0.0022 * 0.0023 * 0.0022 *
W 194 81 <DL **
Ti 1,993 199 1,340
Cu 378 112 12
Al 738 15,030 <DL
Mg 305 517 14

* Uncertainty = ± 0.0001; ** DL = Detection limit (3SD of blank signal); *** Depleted uranium interpretation is based on the result of the uranium isotope ratio for 235U/238U as: a. Natural uranium = 0.0060–0.0090, average = 0.0073; b. Depleted uranium = 0.0020–0.0026, average = 0.0022.
