 Geochemistry
Geochemistry is the study of the chemical composition of the Earth and other planets. It is a
branch of Earth science and chemistry.

Geochemistry is used to understand the composition of the Earth and other planets, how they
formed, and how they have evolved over time. Geochemists use a variety of techniques to study
the composition of rocks, minerals, fluids, and gasses.

Geochemistry is a powerful tool for understanding the Earth and other planets. It can be used to
study the formation and evolution of the Earth and other planets, and to understand the
processes that control the composition of the Earth and other planets.

What is Main Focus of Geochemistry?

The main focus of geochemistry is to understand the
processes that control the distribution and abundance of
elements and minerals, and to use this knowledge to
interpret the history of the Earth and other planets.
Geochemists use a variety of analytical techniques to study
the composition of rocks, minerals, soils, water, and air.

What is The Difference Between Geology and

Geochemistry?

There are many differences between geology and

geochemistry, but the most important distinction is that
geology is the study of the Earth's physical structure and
geochemistry is the study of the Earth's chemical
composition. Geologists use a variety of techniques to study
the Earth's physical structure, including field observations,
laboratory analysis, and remote sensing. Geochemists use a
 variety of techniques to study the Earth's chemical
composition, including field observations, laboratory analysis,
and remote sensing.
