Re: Mineral identification in rocks that are also radioactive using various radiometric techniques.


 

The upper peaks did not want to line up well.? I think that is because calibration was only done up to 59.5.

Charles can you do a comparison out to past the 185 cutoff. The 185 cut off is what one would expect for a uranium only composition. The tails would indicate some self shielding.? Looks good for a natural

I guess that accounts for most of those extra peaks in the Am X 8 scans.

Here is the U acetate compared to the liebigite.? They have basically the same peaks.

Yes there is a test scan posted? with the exciter (Am X 8 pellets) and only an aluminum target. That post mentions possible background subtraction using that data Charles.

There is lead, brass (Cu +Zn) Iron and palladium in the exciter.
