Summary(Plain Language Summary, not published)
Over the last decade the use of portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) spectrometers for both environmental and exploration geochemistry has grown. For this study, a total of 4749 analyses were carried out to examine the precision, accuracy, dwell time optimization, instrument drift, and calibration of a pXRF spectrometer.
