Abstract We compare three different methods of X‐ray analysis in a scanning electron microscope (SEM): energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), wavelength‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (WDX) and micro X‐ray fluorescence (μXRF). These methods are all applied to the same gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafer with a 0.8 nm layer of indium arsenide (InAs) on ...

Kinetics of Sphalerite Leaching by MnO2-KI Oxidation System in Sulfuric Acid
Efficient extraction of zinc from polymetallic concentrates is crucial for the metallurgical industry. Traditional leaching techniques often rely on strong oxidizing agents, which can be wasteful and environmentally harmful.

A study of isotropic-pseudoanisotropic zoning in sphalerite [PDF]
Sphalerite with isotropic-pseudoanisotropic zoning is described from greisen in Eurajoki, SW Finland. Single-crystal X-ray studies showed that the pseudoanisotropy is due to very small chalcopyrite inclusions, oriented with their crystallographic axes ...

Abstract Measuring the bismuth (Bi) content of ternary gallium arsenide bismuthide (GaAsBi) alloys is important because it sensitively influences their bandgap, and Bi is known to segregate vertically to the surface and sometimes also laterally during growth, so elemental distribution maps need to be quantified.

Sulfur isotope rations of sulfide minerals from the deposit of the Tsuchikura mine, Shiga Prafecture, Japan [PDF]
Sulfur isotope rations of sulfide minerals in the ore specimens from the deposit of the Tsuchikura mine are distrib-uted in a range from -0.8 to 5.4%, mostly from +0.5 to 3.0%, close to the previous data (from +1 to +3%) by Miyake and Sasaki (1980).

Influence of the Interaction between Sphalerite and Pyrite on the Copper Activation of Sphalerite [PDF]
In this paper, the effect of pyrite on the activation of sphalerite was investigated by micro-flotation, copper adsorption experiments, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and electrochemical measurement. The micro-flotation test results showed that the recovery and flotation rate of sphalerite with copper sulphate as activator and butyl xanthate ...

In situ single‐spot Rb/Sr cosmochronology of roedderite in the Ribbeck aubrite (asteroid 2024 BX1)
Abstract The mineralogy and textures of several fragments from the Ribbeck aubrite were analyzed using a combination of scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe analysis, μRaman spectroscopy, and laser ablation inductively coupled reaction cell mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS/MS).
