Abstract
A comparison is made between various measures proposed thus far
for deducing the "best values" from discordant data
received in the course of collaborative analysis of proposed reference
rocks. Using the raw data on three Canadian samples and the summation
and "iron-oxide compatibility" tests, it is claimed
that the "select laboratories" method produces the best
results.
