Re: pseudo
DudeActually quite keen to see ?reflectance of?the 1050 nm ?peak?with a tungsten halogen light in the near infrared ?for the thinner small tektite.Hopefully can capture the green glow of tektites

Re: pseudo
Taray,
Can you see the Fe+2 UV and 1050nm absorption by doing a reflectance measurement?

Re: pseudo
This green glow of tektites is due to higher Fe2+ content caused by exposure to reducing agents from high intensity impact .
This ferrous visible absorption peak can be analyzed by optical

Re: pseudo
Dude?
Even the big tektite has a a green hue by shining visible light??close to the sides..Otherwise opaque .
The??rounded pseudo one is grey to brown to visible transmitted light .No green

Re: pseudo
Taray,
Also in the Saffordite is Zr at 15.79 and possibly a small Y at 14.96 keV.
The Tektitebg shows Fe, Rb, Sr, Ba, possibly Y and Ti,

Re: pseudo tektites
Hi guys?
Here is rock bought online.
Believe to be a saffordite??,a variety of pseudo tektite.
This saffordite being glassy in origin share similar??xrf and specific gravities

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
Taray,
The XRF shows the S at 2.3nm, Cl at 2.62nm, Al at 1.45 nm, and K at 3.36.

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
There is S in there too
When??mixed powdered rock with dil HCl ,some minor effervescence took place?
After attempting to dry,there was rotten egg smell suggestive of H2S
I tried??casually

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
Zircon’s are noted for hosting REE and the XRF shows that. The sodalite Cl is also seen in the XRF. The optical spectra is a good match based on that paper.

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
Zircon coexisting with florescent orange sodalite will give yellow florescense
This zircon florescense is typically a broad yellow band at 575 nm
There??is a slope in this region with both 405 nm

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
Pr+3 would have a 624 and a 645nm peak both of which are seen here.

Is there As in there?
Repeated with syenite front face florescence with 365 nm UV
Despite 2 rd and 3th order peaks, the peaks are better and coincide with data from articles
Similar florescent

Re: [OpticalSpectroscopyGroup] [XRF-Page-2] syenite
Taray,
Looking at your optical spectra it looks like at least three of the rounded peaks look to be Sm.

Re: syenite
The new run is seeing Ce, La, Nd, Nb (16.62), Y (14.96)
Ga is still pretty weak at 9.27 and maybe Se at 11.27
The REE’s seen in XRF would tend to confirm the optical spectra is showing what is

Same principles of electronic transitions to a higher energy state due to energy absorption. XRF works at the atomic level while UV fluorescence works at the molecular level or in a crystal
