Fluoride content of minerals in gneissic rocks at an area of endemic dental fluorosis in Sri Lanka: estimates from combined petrographic and electron microprobe analysis

<p class="Default">A mass balance of the mineralogical sources of fluoride in charnockitic gneiss bedrock and regolith (weathered rock) in Sri Lanka has been undertaken, using optical petrography and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) t...
