Grant and Lester, I do primarily geochemistry for processing and display in QGIS, but occasionally I do a little physical chemistry - aka geophysics ;-)
I’ve been really liking working in R with all the support in there for visualization, EDA and modelling. For some purposes it could be another open option worth considering. There is also quite a lot of spatial support in R which doesn’t hurt. Another aspect that has been attractive with R is maintaining a "reproducible research” approach to how I do interpretation now. Having the scripts used to pull, filter, summarize, process and visualize is very useful for both the next project or the next time I’m back on the same project. Graphics in R is excellent - that was the most compelling attraction for me to start using R years ago now.
