Description
This volume describes the chemical analysis of geological materials, presenting an integrated view of geoanalysis by discussing analytical methodology in the context of geological field sampling and data interpretation.;Written by experts in the field, Analysis of Geological Materials: provides an overview of geochemical research and implications for the analytical laboratory; identifies the strong link between sample collection in the field and treatment of the sample in the laboratory; reviews the mechanical techniques used to prepare a typical pulp representation of the original field sample; offers a comprehensive overview of analytical methods available in the modern laboratory; includes a special section on methods used in the field and in remote locations; considers methods capable of determining isotope ratios and microprobe processes that can generate spatially resolved data; covers commercial samples in which a sample matrix is atypical and an inaccurate analysis can have major financial implications; explains what should be included in QA and AC programs designed for a laboratory where clients require different levels of assured quality; and contains extensive examples of the interpretation of geoanalytical data.
