A METHOD FOR QUANTITATIVE DETERMINATION OF SOIL MINERALS BY X-RAY DIFFRACTION (ABRIDGMENT)

This paper describes the theory and initial test results for a method of quantitatively determining the amount of various mineral components in a soil sample by comparing X-ray diffraction peak intensities of the mineral in the sample with the intensities of the same peak in specimens that are a mixture of the original soil sample and known additional amounts of the mineral in question. That is, the component being determined is used as an internal standard.
