inXitu’s new X-Ray diffraction analyser for limestone production

Recent advances in the field of X-Ray diffraction (XRD) now make it possible to easily perform quantitative analysis of the common minerals associated with limestone, where previously it has been considered too complex and costly for use by most producers. inXitu, a leader in portable XRD/XRF based instrumentation, has recently added an instrument to this field with the BTX benchtop XRD analyser. This enables true, quantitative mineral determination in a cost-effective, easy-to-use way; with the capability to analyse alpha-quartz and asbestos minerals as well as common minerals such as calcite and dolomite.
