Six tourmaline samples were investigated as potential reference materials (RMs) for boron isotope measurement by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The tourmaline samples are chemically homogeneous and cover a compositional range of tourmaline supergroup minerals (primarily Fe, Mg and Li end-members). Additionally, they have homogeneous boron delta values with intermediate precision values during SIMS analyses of less than 0.6 parts per thousand (2s). These samples were compared with four established tourmaline RMs, that is, schorl IAEA-B-4 and three Harvard tourmalines (schorl HS#112566, dravite HS#108796 and elbaite HS#98144). They were re-evaluated for their major element and boron delta values using the same measurement procedure as the new tourmaline samples investigated. A discrepancy of about 1.5 parts per thousand in delta B-11 was found between the previously published reference values for established RMs and the values determined in this study. Significant instrumental mass fractionation (IMF) of up to 8 parts per thousand in delta B-11 was observed for schorl-dravite-elbaite solid solutions during SIMS analysis. Using the new reference values determined in this study, the IMF of the ten tourmaline samples can be modelled by a linear combination of the chemical parameters FeO + MnO, SiO(2)and F. The new tourmaline RMs, together with the four established RMs, extend the boron isotope analysis of tourmaline towards the Mg- and Al-rich compositional range. Consequently, thein situboron isotope ratio of many natural tourmalines can now be determined with an uncertainty of less than 0.8 parts per thousand (2s).
