CLV-2 Spruce Needles

CLV-1 and CLV-2 Certificate of Analysis

Certified Reference Material: Spruce Twigs and Needles
Two samples, CLV-1 and CLV-2, consisting of spruce twigs and spruce needles, respectively, from the Cluff Lake uranium mining area in northern Saskatchewan, were prepared as analytical reference materials. Each sample was milled and ground to minus 212 :m, blended, and bottled in 125-g units.
The bottles were sealed in laminated aluminum foil-mylar pouches to maintain sample integrity. Opened bottles should be stored in a desiccator. All of the material was subjected to batch gamma-ray irradiation to a minimum dose of 25,000 Sv for sterilization purposes.
Nine laboratories participated in the interlaboratory program to provide analytical results for uranium and five radionuclides.
CANMET Report NUTP-4E, "Vegetative Radionuclide Reference Materials", will be provided with each order of CLV-1 or CLV-2.
