Abstract

Interspecific association means the significant association of heavy minerals due to more than chance causes alone. p-F multivariate model helps in establishing significant associations among heavies estimated from a set of samples. Attempts are made to analyse three sets of samples of Lower, Middle and Upper Siwaliks from a vertical profile in the Punjab. Application of the method in comparison of strata and provenance studies is discussed.
