| Description | LA-ICP-MS method was used to analyze a relatively unknown type of silicate rock, so called revait. Analyses were performed on 10 natural samples of this rock in order to determine both major and trace element composition. NIST SRM 610 was used as a calibration material for quantification purposes. The statistical evaluation using exploratory data analysis (EDA) and advanced multivariate statistical methods, such as principal component analysis (PCA) was described. |
