This study investigates the crystal structural variations and their relation to chemical composition and radiation effects of detrital zircon and monazite, and the elevated radionuclide concentrations in zircon and monazite-rich heavy mineral deposits in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. Several experimental techniques such as electron-probe micro-analysis (EPMA), single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), synchrotron high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction (HRPXRD), gamma-ray spectroscopy with hyper-purity germanium detector (GRS-HPGe), and gravity, magnetic, and electrical mineral separators have been used to carry out this research. In addition, several software programs including SHELX, WinGX, GSAS-EXGUI, Crystal Maker, and Gamma-W have also been applied for data processing and analysis. The unit-cell parameters for the eight zircon samples vary linearly with increasing unit-cell volume, V. The detrital zircon sample 7:PIF (Perry Island Formation) from the Canadian Arctic Islands has the lowest unit-cell ... |
