TITLE: Hematite.02+Quartz.98 GDS76 DESCRIPT
DOCUMENTATION_FORMAT: MIXTURE
SAMPLE_ID: GDS76
MIXTURE_TYPE: Intimate
MIXTURE: Hematite (2%) + Quartz (98%) (Hematite group)
FORMULA: alpha-Fe2O3 + SiO2
FORMULA_HTML: alpha-Fe2O3 + SiO2
COLLECTION_LOCALITY: Laboratory mixture
ORIGINAL_DONOR: Unknown
CURRENT_SAMPLE_LOCATION: USGS Spectroscopy sample collection library - Denver, Colorado

Hematite GDS27 2 wt% + 98 wt% Pure crystal quartz (less than 250 µm grain sizes)
END_SAMPLE_DESCRIPTION.
XRD_ANALYSIS:
40 kV - 30 mA, 6.5-9.5 keV
File: hemqtz76_mdi (smear on quartz plate)
References: Huebner's reference patterns; Borg and Smith (1969); PDF2 #33-1161,
33-664
Found: Quartz, trace hematite
Comments: Quartz reflections are extremely sharp with excellent resolution of
alpha1-alpha2 components. Six very weak to barely significant hematite reflections
were observed. The strip chart shows reflections at 3.11, 3.07, 3.06, and 2.66
angstroms; only the 2.66 angstrom peak appears significant in the raw data, and
none are present after routine filtering by Jade. There are several other very
weak reflections (3.11-3.06, 2.66 angstroms) seen only in the strip chart.
