Principles of geochemical classification of elements
Abstract
According to the law of universal dispersion of chemical elements (Clark-Vernadsky law) in each drop or dust particle of matter on our planet can be found all the elements of the Mendeleev table. Their quantitative ratio in different shells of the globe and more local geological objects is determined by the nature of each element - its individual geochemical features. The closeness of geochemical (chemical and physical) properties is due to the similar behavior of elements in geological processes and joint accumulation in certain geological formations or shells of the globe. The latter circumstance makes it possible to subdivide chemical elements into a number of categories according to geochemical features and, first of all, according to their relative abundance in various geological objects or shells of the globe.
