Abstract
Previously published data were analyzed on the isotopic systematics of noble gases extracted from samples using various methods. By the example of four minerals from the rocks of the Kola Peninsula, it was shown that a comparison of the results provides the most comprehensive and reliable information on the qualitative and quantitative composition of gases and allows discrimination between fluid microinclusions of different origin (primary and secondary).
