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
## Swwnary. in the determination of chrysotile asbestos by means of powder x-ray diffraction, a mathematical approach is used to overcome the problem of kaoIinite interference. The overlapped peaks are deconvolutcd by using leastsquares and simplex optimization procedures.
