Reference powdergrams of some minerals from the class of oxides
Abstract
This work is one of the links in the chain to create an X-ray detector for minerals. The principles of constructing an X-ray detector, as well as the advantages of the X-ray method of powder in the diagnosis of minerals and in relation to deciphering the mineralogical composition of mixtures, are given in exhaustive detail by Prof. A.K. Boldyrev, V.I. Mikheev, G.A. Kovalev and V.N. Dubinina in the work “X-ray determinant of minerals” part I, so we will not touch on these issues here. We only note that at present the problem of creating an X-ray detector is so urgent that in a number of X-ray laboratories (Leningrad Mining Institute, Central Scientific Research Geological Prospecting Institute in Leningrad and the Institute of Applied Mineralogy in Moscow) the corresponding topic was put forward and work began directly on preparing material for the X-ray detector.
