The invention discloses a sandy deposited particle distinguishing method, and belongs to the technical field of
sedimentology. The method comprises the following steps: collecting and
processing a sample, analyzing surface roundness, disc shaped
impact crater, crescent-shaped
impact crater, shell like fracture, V shaped
impact crater, and impact
ditch of
quartz particle through
scanning electron microscope (SEM) images; utilizing a
linear measurement method to count the surface characteristics of
quartz particles, utilizing the ratio of
quartz particles having impact ditches and disc shaped impact craters to all particles that linear lines go through in the
linear measurement method to draw a distinguishing
layout; and utilizing the ratio of quartz particles having crescent-shaped impact craters and V shaped impact craters to all particles that linear lines go through in the
linear measurement method to draw a distinguishing
layout. Compared with the technology of particle size analysis, the provided method has the advantages that the application range is wider, and there is no situation of multiple solutions or less situations of multiple solutions. Compared with the technology of
bedding analysis, the provided method has the advantages that the particles can be researched in a
microscopic level, the theoretical foundation is strong, and the judgment results are accurate.
