<p>The object of this invention is a method for determining ore contents of drill cuttings by irradiating and by detecting fluorescence radiation and scattering radiation. According to the method, drill cuttings being essentially immediately retrieved from the drill hole is arranged as a layer, the upper surface of which is at least partly free from water, a statistically sufficiently representative defined area of the layer is irradiated and the fluorescence of the irradiation is measured for element-characteristic intensities and for Compton-scattering or coherent scattering intensities. The element-characteristic intensities are corrected using coefficients empirically defined from Compton-scattering and/or coherent scattering in order to compensate for the damping due to the coverage effect of water.</p> |
