Abstract

The distribution of fluoride in spring and stream waters, stream sediments and soils of the Osor district, Province of Gerona, northeastern Spain, has been studied. Fluoride was determined by use of a fluoride-sensitive electrode. This potentiometric method has been found useful for geochemical exploration for fluorite because of its simplicity and high sensitivity. Investigations of the fluoride contents of natural waters and stream sediments resulted in the discovery of new fluorite mineralizations. Secondary dispersion patterns of soils have been studied. Different analytical procedures to extract the fluoride have been used. The application of the methods in geochemical exploration surveys is discussed.
