Mineralienatlas (name for mineral atlas) is the platform for people interested in mineralogy, geology, palaeontology and mining since 2001. We operate a significant database for minerals, fossils, rocks and their localities. Mineralienatlas is not limited to a section. We bring together information and inform comprehensive.

To complete our information constantly, we need your support. With us, everyone can and should participate. Currently Mineralienatlas is used and expanded by 10531 members. Every month hundreds of thousands of visitors use our website as an information source.
 
Geolitho Foundation non-profit GmbH
Geolitho Foundation non-profit GmbH is the non-profit supporter of the Mineral Atlas (Mineralienatlas), the Lithotheque, the Geolitho Collection Management and the Marketplace and Store by collectors for collectors. The Foundation promotes public education in the field of mineralogy, geology, paleontology and mining by operating, maintaining and further expanding earth science projects.

Die Primärelek­tro­nen des Elek­tro­nen­s­trahl stoßen Elek­tro­nen aus kern­na­hen Schalen der Atome der Probe her­aus.

In die so entstandenen Lücken fallen Elektronen aus weiter vom Atomkern entfernt liegenden Elektronenschalen. Die Energiedifferenz zwischen den beiden hierbei beteiligten Elektronenschalen kann als "Charakteristische Röntgenstrahlung" emittiert werden und ist für jedes Element anders (die ebenfalls entstehende Röntgen-Bremsstrahlung interessiert hier nicht, wird aber in den Auswertungen berücksichtigt). Die Auswertung des Röntgenspektrums (Energie-Häufigkeits-Verteilung) erlaubt es, die Elementzusammensetzung einer Probe zu identifizieren und über die Intensität zu quantifizieren. Dazu wird die Röntgenstrahlung hinsichtlich ihrer Energie analysiert und die jeweilige Intensität der Spektrallinien gemessen. Da die Energie der Röntgenstrahlung von der Ordnungszahl der Atome abhängt (Moseley'sches Gesetz), kann anhand der Röntgenspektren auf die ... Ein Beitrag von Berthold Weber und Frank M.

REE belong to the most important raw materials of the 21st century, which are used in a large number of key technologies. However, due to the fact that almost 97% of the world's REE are mined and produced in China, REE have become an ongoing political issue, mainly amongst technology providing countries like the US, Japan and Western Europe.

This portrait tries to explain the characteristics of REE and their role for our modern world. Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german)

Das Zählrohr besteht in der Regel aus einem beidseitig abgeschlossenen Rohrstück, welches entweder aus einem elektrisch leitenden Material (Metall), oder aus elektrisch isolierendem Material (z.B. Glas), das jedoch innen elektrisch leitend beschichtet sein muss, hergestellt ist. In seinem Inneren befindet sich von der elektrisch leitfähigen Außenwand isoliert ein dünner Zähldraht. Dabei stellt der besagte Zähldraht die Anode, das Zählrohrgehäuse die Kathode dar. Befüllt ist der Zwischenraum mit einem Zählgas, welches das eigentliche Detektorvolumen (für Korpuskelstrahlung) darstellt.

Weiterhin unterscheidet man mehrere Bautypen von ...

Many dealers were extremely satisfied. According to the organizer, 18,000 guests visited the halls on Saturday alone. Both days were a hive of activity and the numerous children's attractions were well received. Parents were everywhere with their children to complete the geo-rally.

For mineral collectors, the usual dealers were on site, although some tables remained empty. There were no highlights from the scene or overflowing tables with identical material from new finds. However, one stand with an impressive selection of Germanite chunks was a welcome novelty.

The special exhibition “The Impossible Crystal” was a success. Even if not all the exhibits could be described as “impossible crystal”, all the pieces were of the best quality and well worth seeing. In the B halls, the author visited the “Young Designers”, including a student who presented cast silver jewelry in an organic design that showed off the embedded stones to their best advantage - an impressive piece of work...
