Description
Summary:Jovanovsky et al review of the results of complementary use of vibrational spectroscopy (infrared and Raman) and X-ray powder diffraction in the process of detection and identification of the silicate minerals from the Republic of Macedonia. Among other things, the chemical analysis of the minerals was conduced in order to determine the minerals composition and showed that it is especially important for the minerals that form solid solutions because according to the chemical composition one could evaluate whether the studied sample represents the endmember of the mineral series or its composition ranges between the endmembers.
