Iron ore elemental analysis with XRF

X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is used to quantitatively determine the following minerals from iron ore:

• Aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃)

• Calcium oxide (CaO)

• Chromium(III) oxide (Cr₂O₃)

• Iron (Fe)

• Potassium oxide (K₂O)

• Magnesium oxide (MgO)

• Manganese (Mn)

• Sodium oxide (Na₂O)

• Nickel(II) oxide (NiO)

• Phosphorus (P)

• Sulfur (S)

• Silicon dioxide (SiO₂)

• Vanadium(V) oxide (V₂O₅)

• Titanium dioxide (TiO₂)
