X – Ray Fluorescence (XRF)

An X- ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer is an x ray instrument used for routine, relatively non-destructive chemical analysis of rocks, minerals, sediments and fluids. It works on wavelength-dispersive spectroscopic principles that are similar to an electron microprobe (EPMA). However, an XRF is used for bulk analysis of larger fractions of geological materials. The relative ease
