Chemical Analysis of Minerals

By Melinda Darby Dyar, Mickey E. Gunter & Dennis Tasa

Release : 2018-12-13

Genre : Geology, Textbooks, Science & Nature

Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
This chapter provides an overview of the various analytical techniques used by mineralogists to determine the chemical makeup of minerals. Often, several different techniques must be used to conclusively determine the chemical formula for a mineral. An overview of 11 different analytical methods is provided, with detailed citations noted for additional reading. The chapter emphasizes how each technique contributes information to help understand mineral composition.
Topics covered in Chapter 9 include: Wet Chemical Analysis "Water Content" of Minerals and Hydrogen Extraction Inductively-Coupled Plasma (ICP) and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) Electron Microprobe and the Scanning Electron Microscopy Ion Microprobes Proton-Induced Emission Spectroscopy Neutron Activation Analysis Mössbauer Spectroscopy Visible and Infrared Spectroscopy Raman Spectroscopy
