Caracterización mineralógica e identificación de las áreas fuentes de los sedimentos actuales del istmo de Jandia (Fuerteventura)

Abstract

The grain sire, calcirnetry and thin section studies, have been used to characterised thc actual eohn sediment oílandia isthmus. Nevcrthdess tlic application of the Rietveld rnethod for theprecise quantiiication of the X- ray diiíracfogrames war decisive tool to the determinalion ofthe sediments sourcr area, as well as to be able to obtain a cartography of the mineral spatial distribution presenis in the sediments.
