R1C3 is the only square in column 3 that can be <1>

Squares R4C2<47>, R5C1<48>, R5C2<4678> and R5C3<467> in block 4 form a comprehensive naked quad. These 4 squares can only contain the 4 possibilities <4678>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the block.

R6C2 - removing <6> from <36> leaving <3>

R6C8 is the only square in row 6 that can be <6>

Squares R4C2 and R9C2 in column 2 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <47>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R3C2 - removing <4> from <468> leaving <68>

R5C2 - removing <47> from <4678> leaving <68>

Intersection of row 3 with block 1. The value <6> only appears in one or more of squares R3C1, R3C2 and R3C3 of row 3. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 1. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 1 cannot contain this value.
