ASCII xy data files from the experiment are provided on the module Blackboard. Provide a short report for the study comprised of the following components:

(i) A plot of intensity vs. 2q for the data and, from this, an initial assessment of crystalline vs amorphous nature of the sample and its composition as single phase or as mixture of phases.

(ii) A short description of ca. 3-5 candidate phases that might be in the coating of the fragment (consider both the pigment and its base). Briefly discuss your choice

(iii) Plots of the data compared to the candidate phases from (ii)

(iv) A critical evaluation of the presence of each candidate phase in the sample.

(v) A brief conclusion of the study including suggestions for further work on the sample
