I repeated same process
as I did for KCl saturation
Heated Magnesium Sample
Used pipette to obtain sample 2 then put
on sample slide
Let the slide dry for 24 hours
Put in furnace at 100 for 8 hours
Put in x-ray diffraction machine

Common Mineral D-spacing
D-spacings of mica are 10,5, and 3.33A. D-spacings of kaolinite are 7.2
and 3.57A. D-spacings of quartz are 4.26 and 3.3A.

Conclusion
In conclusion, I have recorded that quartz
is the most prevalent mineral in all of the
samples I had. In this case it seems all
the samples had a similar make up of
100% quartz mineral. All the samples also
had appropriate amounts on mica and
kaolinite in them.
