Tests three deterministic models using the raw data that were originally used to construct classifications for determining the provenance of sands and sandstones. Shows that these models can successfully classify no more than 85% of their own data. Additional variables (such as heavy minerals), the combination of different methods, and statistical analysis of data are necessary to improve the reliability of provenance interpretation. -from Authors

Abstract
Tests three deterministic models using the raw data that were originally used to construct classifications for determining the provenance of sands and sandstones. Shows that these models can successfully classify no more than 85% of their own data. Additional variables (such as heavy minerals), the combination of different methods, and statistical analysis of data are necessary to improve the reliability of provenance interpretation. -from Authors
