Statistical Approach by Factor and Cluster Analysis on Origin of Elements From the Hamit Plutonic (Turkey) Rock Samples

Abstract

The Hamit pluton forms part of the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex. It is located N-NE of Kaman (Kirsehir). It covers an area of about 120 km 2. The geochemical contents of 63 rock samples collected from this pluton were analyzed for their origin, homogeneity and relationship with crustal rocks. Their element contents were determined by using X-Ray Fluorescence spectroscopy. The samples were divided into 2 major groups based on their similarities: Group 1 contained 63.5% of the samples and indicated they were formed from melts whose contents might have evolved greatly due to crustal assimilation; while the 36.5% of samples belonged to Group 2, and show minimal evolution of the melt. According to the variation in K/Rb ratio versus SiO 2 and the Rb/Zr versus SiO 2 the initial melt had experience great evolution due to crustal assimilation. The initial melt is considered to have contained "most" of SiO

Investigation of suitability of marbles to standards with inequality expressions and statistical approach using some physical and mechanical properties

“…The mechanical properties of marble samples affecting fracture and crack systems have been examined and evaluated using several statistical methods [32]. Moreover, inequality studies on marbles have gained prominence in recent years [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Therefore, statistical methods selected for the evaluation of the physical and mechanical properties of marbles from Akcay village, inequalities, and the maps obtained using geographical information systems have been successfully used in line with the intended goal for the study.…”

“…Multivariate statistical analyses can be used to evaluate the characteristic features of marbles that have undergone different stages and tests. In the literature, some studies were conducted to evaluate and interpret tests on marble and rocks samples by using statistical analyses and inequality as methods [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Some of these studies are summarized as follows.…”
