Abstract
Eighteen geochemical reference samples have been analyzed for iodine using an automated photometric method. Few comparative values are available in the literature but of the six that are available four show good agreement with the data reported. In all but one case the values obtained are less than 0.3 ppm, the exception being a bauxite (B.C.S. 395) with 8.8 ppm I.
