Stream Sediment Geochemistry 250m North-West (G1, G3, G4) and South-East Ireland (G2) ING GRIDScienceGeochemistry of streams sediments can be used to screen for rare minerals and thus help developing local resources. Knowing composition of stream sediments helps to understand what rocks were eroded by the water, where they came from and what resources they might contain....
