Do you need to recalculate geochemical analysis results of trace elements for plotting in Zr/TiO2 - Nb/Y diagram?

21 September 2019 1 5K Report

For major oxides one needs to recalculate the raw analysis data (K2O, Na2O, SiO2) for TAS diagram. What about trace elements? Do you need to recalculate them too for Winchester & Floyd (1977) diagram for compansating LOI values?

Muharrem Yavuz

According to an author, it is best to recalculate all major oxides including TiO2. No need to recalculate trace elements.
