MULTI-SENSOR ANALYSIS OF COMPLEX GEOLOGIC MATERIALS

摘要

Systems and methods for analyzing an unknown geological sample are disclosed. The system may include at least two analytical subsystems, and each of the at least two analytical subsystems provides different information about the geological sample. The data sets from various analytic subsystems are combined for further analysis, and the system includes a chemometric calibration model that relates geological attributes from analytical data previously obtained from at least two analytical techniques. A prediction engine applies the chemometric calibration model to the combined analytical information from the geological sample to predict specific geological attributes in the unknown geological sample.
