Data Leveling of Multi-Map Geochemical Exploration Data Using Compositional Data Analysis: A Case Study from the Baiyinchagan–Maodeng Area, Inner Mongolia, China by Rui Tang, Cheng Li, Keyan Xiao, Guodong Tang

“…The results show the following features: the raw data from multiple map sheets contain certain errors, and these raw data cannot be directly used to create geochemical maps; the CR method is unsuitable for leveling in areas with small scales or significant geological background differences; the BL method yields more reasonable results when there is a similar geochemical background (geological background) between map sheets, and it is better suited for leveling between map sheets in areas with small scales or significant regional differences in geochemical backgrounds; finally, the MSC method yields results similar to the BL method, but it does not require boundary consistency, thus having fewer limitations, although it requires multi-scale geochemical data. …”
