Get the atomic weight of an element

Reference datasets commonly used in the geosciences. These include
standard atomic weights of the elements, a periodic table, a list of minerals
including their abbreviations and chemistry, geochemical data of reservoirs
(primitive mantle, continental crust, mantle, basalts, etc.), decay constants
and isotopic ratios frequently used in geochronology, color codes of the
chronostratigraphic chart. In addition, the package provides functions for
basic queries of atomic weights, the list of minerals, and chronostratigraphic
chart colors. All datasets are fully referenced, and a BibTeX file containing
the references is included.
