Dear all,

Stan Halas informed me that he supplied the original material (sphalerites) for the production of the IAEA-S-1, IAEA-S-3 and IAEA-SO-6. The story is that Brian Robinson did produce the final reference material (AgS: S-1 to S-3) from the sphalerite material provided by Stan Halas – it was rather an incomplete than incorrect story I gave before. I wanted to correct this to give honour to whom deserves it.

Best wishes,
Pier.
