<p> Separated minerals From 18 different rock samples were
available. These came From various locations in the Grenville
province. OF these samples, there were 44 minerals which had at
least one coexisting mineral phase. These were all analysed For
boron by thermal neutron irradiation using the Prompt Gamma
Neutron Activation Analysis at McMaster University Nuclear
Reactor. There was a preferential boron partition determined For
the samples originating From an igneous source, and a numerical
value of 0.7 was determined for k-Feldspar/Biotite. There was no
Preferential boron partition among the coexisting phases that
originated From a metamorphic source. Sphene and Fluorite
contained much less boron than other minerals that coexisted with
them. </p> / Thesis / Bachelor of Science (BSc)
