Characterization of Germanium Speciation in Sphalerite (ZnS) from Central and Eastern Tennessee, USA, by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

Characterization of Germanium Speciation in Sphalerite (ZnS) from Central and Eastern Tennessee, USA, by X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy

X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy was used on zoned sphalerites (ZnS) from two world-class Mississippi Valley Type deposits, the Central and Eastern Tennessee Mining district, USA, in order to investigate germanium oxidation states. Due to the low germanium concentrations of...
