Abstract:This paper presents the geochemical features of Vertisols developed on granites from Kaele, North Cameroun. The mineralogy of soil samples was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Inductively Coupled Plasmas-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) have been used to determine major and trace element including rare earth elements compositions of granite and soil samples. Granite samples consist of feldspars (orthoclase, plagioclase), quartz, biotites and opaque minerals. They have peraluminous … Show more
