Are Berlinite (AlPO4) and BeF2 appear always present while XRD...
I am trying to find out XRD (Phases present) with Match3 software from XRD data of sand powder, but whenever quartz sands are nearly pure, these two phases are also shown to be present. Is it due to their XRD patterns being very close, or is it due to material contamination?
