Luminescence Sensitivity of Quartz From Rocks Under in situ Chemical Weathering Conditions

In provenance investigation of Quaternary sediments, quartz luminescence sensitivity (QLS) has been employed as a technique. The weathering and influence on the earliest signs sedimentary require more consideration. this study, QLS properties eight samples Permian biotite monzogranite from borehole in southern tropics China are investigated. degree chemical does not correspond with values that have undergone varying degrees situ weathering. We hypothesize variation irradiation field during process may affect QLS, but considerably within 200 ka. addition, we discovered same source undergoes weathering, constant response to irradiation-bleaching cycles (IBCs). presence variances thermal activation curves (TACs) rock body indicates further research is required apply TAC indicator.
