Temporal evolution of select elemental ratios of the leachates. The Li/Na a, Li/Mg b, Li/B c ratios in the leachates, as calculated from their respective concentrations in solution in µg/ml measured using ICP-MS. Each data point represents the average of the triplicate leachate measurements with errors given to one s.d. The blue solid line with diamond markers and the orange dotted line with square markers in all figures represent the two datasets of the duplicated experiments. The open diamond markers indicate the same experiment as the filled diamond markers in which in which the leachant was refreshed in one vessel after the 28 day aliquots were taken, before the glass was leached for further 70 days (98 days total dissolution).
