Titanium
Geochemical Symbol: Ti
Typical Detection Limit (Aqua Regia/ICP): 0.01% NOTE: Many common minerals that
host Ti, whether as a primary or trace constituent, are resistant to strong-acid digestion routinely used in commercial geochemical labs. Therefore, digestion is
never total.
Typical Detection Limit (Neutron Activation): N/A
Detectability
Typical frequency distribution shows some truncation (censoring); statistical calculations usually possible
Exploration Geochemical Applications
1. As a Pathfinder
None known
2. As an Aid to Geological Mapping
Elevated values indicative of mafic rocks
