Extract

Of the roughly 3,000 known mineral species over 290 or 10 percent are phosphates. This report deals with a recently initiated project, the purpose of which is to produce better X-ray powder diffraction standards than currently exist for selected phosphate minerals. The project involves evaluation of existing X-ray diffraction standards for phosphate minerals, and collection of new data from species for which current data are judged unsatisfactory.
