“…The prediction in the 1966 review that high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometers would decrease the need for chemical separations in neutron activation analysis does not seem to have been fulfilled. Separations by ion exchange have followed activation in the analysis of rocks (62,63,159,349) and meteorites (116,174,317). Trace elements thus determined include chromium (62), copper, gallium and zinc (63), rhenium (159), antimony and tin (174) and mercury (116,174).…”
