The legacy IGWS website is in the process of being decommissioned. Most services have been migrated to igws.indiana.edu. Only a few services will remain temporarily until the migration is complete..

Issue:
Characterizing the mineralogical compositions of rocks is an important research effort at the Indiana Geological and Water Survey (IGWS) aligned with several state- and federally funded projects. Currently, there is no XRD instrument at the IGWS that can be used for mineralogical analysis.
Objective:
The objective of this project is to acquire an X-ray diffraction system for mineralogical analysis at the IGWS.
Approach:
A Siemens D500 XRD instrument will be purchased from Purdue Fort Wayne. Parts, software, ICDD database, and service contracts will be purchased from KS Analytical Systems, a company specializing in XRD instruments and services.
Products:
An XRD instrument with the capability of quantitative mineralogical analysis will be functional.
Benefits:
The X-ray diffraction system will be used for mineralogical analysis of rocks in Indiana and serve various projects with this need.
