Microanalytical Analysis of Nano-Particulate Pressed Pellets made from Manganese Nodules
Manganese nodules have been of both scientific and industrial interest due to their high content of critical metals(i.e. Co, Ni, Zn, Cr, Cu, Pb). The dawn of new microanalytical techniques such as μXRF, LIBS and LA-ICP-MS has opened the possibilities of analysing these samples quantitatively and also visualising the elemental distribution in situ without tedious…
