Quantitative chemical analyses of rocks with X-ray fluorescence analyzer: (1) Major elements

Analytical procedures for major elements in rocks (Si, Ti, Al, Fe, Mn, Mg, Ca, Na, K, P), using a newly installed X-ray fluorescence analyzer (RIGAKURIX3000) at the National Institute of Polar Research, are summarized. The calibration curve method, the matrix correction method, and the fundamental p...
