In andreabz/pbratios: Processing Pb isotope ratio data

The package provides some functions to efficiently extract and process Pb isotope ratio data acquired with Perkin Elmer ELAN ICP-MS.

The principal functions are

extract_data: Extracts data from the csv report produced by the mass spectrometer. The only ratios taken into account are 208Pb/207Pb, 206Pb/207Pb, 208Pb/206Pb and 207Pb/206Pb ratios.
calc_ratios: Removes possible outliers from the dataset and calculate the average Pb isotope ratio for each sample.
corr_mbf: Corrects the Pb isotope ratio values for instrumental mass bias using the bracketing standard technique.

Other functions are provided for inspecting possible outliers, evaluating QC samples, saving the final dataset and produce three-isotope plots.
