The techniques available for the chemical analysis of silicate rocks have undergone a revolution over the last 30 years .no longer is the analytical balance the only instrument used for quantitative measurement .A wide veriety of instrumental techniques are now commonly used for silicate rock analysis ,including some that incorporate excitation sources and detection systems that have been developed only in the last few years .these instrumental developments now permit a wide range of trace elements to be determined on a routine basis .
A Handbook of silicate rock analysis is the first modern book to undertake a truly comprehensive survey of analytical techniques currently available.
The book is devided into20 chapters ,logically ordered to cever general concepts in analytical chemistry:precedure based on wet chemistry and optical spectroscopy;the techniques of arc and spark emission spectrometry and ion selective electrodes ;x-ray and micro-beam procedures;nuclear techniques ;ion exchange chromatography;and other more specialized procedures ,including fire assay .the volume concludes with chapters on geochemical applications of mass spectrometry.
practical detaileds are complemented by parametric data including most sensitive lines ,interference effects and detection limit data that combine to make this text indispensable laboratory handbook for practitioners of analytical geochemistry ,as well as the standard reference work on rock and mineral analysis.
