About geochemistry:

Definition: Study of the distribution and amounts of chemical elements in minerals, ores, rocks, soil, water, and the atmosphere, and the study of the circulation of the elements in nature, on the basis of the properties of their atoms and ions. [Glossary of Geology, 4th ed.]

Used for: chemistry (Earth sciences), geochemical anomaly maps
