An investigation of the combined use of cation exchange enrichment and spectrochemical analysis for the determination of trace constituents in common silicate rocks and chondrites

The combined use of cation exchange enrichment and spectrochemical analysis has been investigated for determining trace constituents (particularly caesium and the rare earths) in common igneous rocks and chondritos. Cation exchange chromatography with hydrochloric acid elution was employed to resolv...
