The distinction of rock types on the basis of their mass spectra, with special reference to lunar-surface applications [PDF]
It is shown that the rock types most commonly expected to be encountered on the lunar surface can for the most part be readily distinguished, chemically, by plotting their relative concentrations of Fe, Mg, and Al on a ternary variation diagram.

Research on Rock Mass Quality Classification Based on An Improved Rough Set–Cloud Model
Rock mass grading is a basic problem in the construction industry and underground engineering research. Because the index parameters that affect the rock mass quality are ambiguous and random, rock mass quality classification is often uncertain. Based on
