Abstract: | Powdered rock samples from strata of the Witwatersrand System's sedimentary succession have been analyzed by x-ray fluorescence and optical spectroscopy techniques for nineteen elements. Using discriminant analysis it is possible to identify strata based on their trace-element compositions. |
