TEXTURAL AND SEMI-QUANTITATIVE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION ASSESSMENT USING SEM

Mineralogical and petrographic assessment using an electron microscope with an SEM-EDS energy analyser.


Electron microscopy with an SEM-EDS energy analyser

Electron microscopy is used in all fields of geology to study rock textures, diagenesis and mineralogy and is also used in micropaleontology.

Semi-quantitative wavelength-dispersion spectrometry

The X-ray spectrum emitted by the analysed minerals is used for semi-quantitative chemical analysis by spectrometric wavelength dispersion.
