X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) is a well-established analytical technique for qualitative and quantitative elemental analysis of a wide variety of routine quality control and research samples. Among its many desirable features, it delivers true multi-element character analysis, acceptable speed and economy, easy of automation, and the capacity to analyze solid samples. This remarkable contribution to this field provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of basic principles, recent developments, instrumentation, sample preparation procedures, and applications of XRF analysis.

Metal pollution of the environment as a result of
abandoned mining activities is an acute problem
nowadays. Although mineral resource extraction has
been carried out for centuries, little attention has
been given to minimise metal dispersal around these
areas coming from the indiscriminately dumped mining
wastes. As a consequence, one of the challenges
facing society today is the identification,
evaluation and remediation of these old disused
areas to protect public health and environmental
quality. These studies are heavily dependant on
observation and quantitative measurements of...
