A colorimetric diffusion-reflection imaging (CDRI) high-throughput analytical technology was developed for library analysis. In the investigation, quartz sands were employed as light diffusion-reflection media. Inorganic and organic compounds with characteristic absorption bands in visible light could be quantified by this
