## Description

Durham is a thriving centre for teaching and research in Geography and Archaeology\. We have significant research activity in inorganic rocks, sediments, and archaeological materials\. To underpin this work we require equipment to quickly and cheaply produce quantitative bulk chemical and bulk mineralogical data on a number of materials\. The University are therefore looking to purchase a Combination X-ray Florescence \(XRF\) and X-ray Diffraction \(XRD\) Spectrometer and Bench-top X-ray Diffraction \(XRD\) Spectrometer\.
