Abstract
The instrument has ten bands in the visible and near-infrared portion of the spectrum (0.5-2.4 mu m). Measurements and statistical analyses were performed on 66 samples, which were characterized by microscopic and X-ray diffraction analyses. On the ability to discriminate between 16 mineralogical groups, 91 percent classification accuracy was achieved.
