It is possible that the cemented parts contained a lot of silt. How do you prepare your sample for the test if it doesn't break down in acid? Our lab had numerous occasions where even after treatment the cemented parts didn't dissolve. We're having problem with determining the particle size...

We had a couple of samples, where the carbonate content was above 40% and we treated the sample with acid, but we wanted to do a test on the samples with some material that we did not treat with the same process. The clay particle content in percent was way higher in the untreated samples. We...

Treatment of cemented or highly consolidated samples with hydrochloric acid results in unusually high silt particle percent (Determination with sieve and sedimentation methods) and sometimes the cemented pieces don't dissolve after treatment. Is there a more effective method for determining...
