초록

암석중에 미립(직경 0.3mm내외)으로 존재하는 조암광물의 동정 및 결정학적인 배향도를 미소부 X선 회절분석기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험에 사용된 표품들은 $A1_{2}SiO_{5}$ 3상디형(규선석, 남정석, 홍주석)으로서 모든 표품들은 박편상의 것을 측정대상으로 하였다 측정에 이용된 X선 회절분석기는 3(${\omega}\;{\chi}\;{\phi}$)축 회전 측각기 및 위치민감형 검출기로 구성되어 있으며 X선원으로는 $CuK_{\alpha}$를 사용하였으며 직경 $50\;\mu\textrm{m}$의 시준기를 사용하였다. 광물 동정은 3(${\omega}\;{\chi}\;{\phi}$)축 회전 측정법에 의해 시행되었으며, 박편표면에 우세하게 나타나는 광물상의 격자면을 알아보기 위해 2(${\omega}\;{\phi}$)축 회전 측정을 실시하였고 2축 회전 측정법에 의해 우세하게 나타난 회절선에 대한 격자방향의 배향도와 극분포를 확인하기 위하여 X-선 극점도 측정을 시행하였다. 3축 회전 측정결과 측정대상 광물상에 대해 동정이 가능하였으며 2축 회전 측정과 X-선 극점도 측정결과 규선석(310), 남성석(200), 홍주석(122)극이 절단면, 즉 박편표면의 법선방향으로 잘 발달하고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 측정법은 편광현미경을 사용하여 식별이 용이하지 않은 미립조암광물의 동정과 배향도를 알아보는데 유용하게 사용될 수 있는 분석기법이다.

Measurements of phase identification and degree of orientation for fine-grained (about 0.3 mm in diameter) minerals in rock samples performed by micro-area X-ray diffractometer.$Al_{2}SiO_{5}$ polymorphs (andalusite, kyanite and sillimanite) were chosen for the measurements and target minerals were existed on thin sections. Micro-area X-ray diffractometer is composed of 3(${\omega}\;{\chi}\;{\phi}$)-circle oscillating goniometer and position sensitive proportional counter (PSPC). $CuK_{\alpha}$ radiation was used as X-ray source and a pin hole ($50\;\mu\textrm{m}$$ in diameter) collimator was selected to focus radiation X-ray onto the target minerals. Phase identification and diffracted X-ray peak indexing were carried out by 3(${\omega}\;{\chi}\;{\phi}$)-circle oscillation measurement. Then, 2(${\omega}\;{\phi}$)-circle oscillation measurement was made for the purpose of searching the prevailing lattice plane of the minerals on thin section surface. Finally, for a selected peak by 2-circle oscillation measurement, X-ray pole figure measurement was executed for the purpose of check the degree of orientation of the single lattice direction and examine its pole distribution. As a result of 3-circle oscillation measurement, it was possible that phase identification among $Al_{2}SiO_{5}$ polymorphs. And from the results of 2-circle oscillation measurement and X-ray pole figure measurement, we recognized that poles of andalusite (122), kyanite (200) and sillimanite (310) lattice plances were well developed with direction normal to each mineral surface plane respectively. Therfore, the measurements used with micro-area X-ray diffractometer in this study will be a useful tool of phase identification and degree of orientation measurement for fine-grained rock forming minerals.
