Depending upon their origin, naturally occurring kaolins contain various accessory minerals including micas, feldspars and quartz. These minerals may be partially removed, but rarely eliminated, by refining. When determining quartz by x-ray diffractometry, serious problems are encountered even with
Naturally occurring calcium carbonates often have a complex accessory mineralogy. Quartz is a common associate, typically present at concentrations < 1 wt.%. A method is described whereby x-ray powder diffractometry may be used to quantify quartz in such samples to better than f 0.01 wt.% (la error)
