title: Neutron-activation analysis for the study of metallogenic provinces.
abstract: The application of instrumental neutron-activation analysis to the study of metallogenic provinces is outlined. Iron, scandium and lanthanum are measured in uncrushed, whole-rock specimens, and the results indicate trace element compositional trends over the 50-mile traverse studied. These trends extend through a number of different formations and rock types, and reflect structural features mapped by others using conventional techniques.
