Figure F1. Example of correction of X-ray diffractogram for a typical kaolinite and chlorite standard mixture. Kaolinite (002) peak is gray. The first step moves the original chlorite (004) peak crest (green) to 25.1°2θ (red). Separation between kaolinite (002) and chlorite (004) is fixed at 0.27°2θ, after which the obscured kaolinite (002) peak intensity can be picked. Both peaks are then modeled using the Pearson II peak fitting function.
