Abstract

A method to interpret and quantify mineral compositions and concentrations, the method including: determining, with a computer, mineral composition models from a non-linear inversion of core or log elemental and mineral concentration data; and determining, with a computer, mineral concentrations for subsurface region from a linear inversion of core or geochemical log data from the subsurface region or analogous region and the mineral composition models.
