| Scientific definition | |
| Scientific description | Chemical data for 6544 bedrock samples throughout Finland. Stratified sampling strategy was used. Major and trace elements were analysed by XRF, ICP-MS, ICP-AES and GFAAS methods. Precision and analytical drift were estimated using 375 duplicate sample pairs. The lowest reliable concentration for each element and analytical method was determined. The database also contains the geographic location and several geological attributes for each sample. |
