Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract / Description of output

Experiments are described which demonstrate considerable atmospheric oxidation of ferrous iron in hydrous igneous rocks during routine grinding in a disc mill prior to chemical analysis. The causes and implications of this oxidation are discussed.
