Geochemistry osmium isotopes

U and U, and this is in part responsible for the more complex isotopic relationships displayed by lead isotopes in comparison with the systematics of strontium, neodymium, hafnium, and osmium isotopes. The mantle geochemistry of noble gases, although of course an integral part of mantle geochemistry, is treated in Chapter 2.06.
