Classification: CPC E  G | IPC E  G

Claim 1:
2. The system of claim 1, wherein the OES sub-system comprises:
a collector positioned in view of the optically transparent window, wherein the collector receives the portion of the optical emission passing through the optically transparent window, collects the received optical emission and transmits the collected optical emission via a first optical fiber;
a monochromator that receives the optical emission from the collector via the first optical fiber and extracts an emission spectrum relating to each of one or more constituent chemical elements of the rock formation;
a set of optical detectors that receive the extracted emission spectrums from the monochromator via a second optical fiber and measure an intensity of the emission spectrum relating to each of the one or more constituent chemical elements; and
an optical analyzer configured to:
receive the measured intensity of the detected emission spectrums relating to the one or more constituent chemical elements; and
determine concentration of each constituent chemical element of the rock formation based on the measured intensity of the emission spectrum relating to the constituent chemical element, wherein a higher intensity of the emission spectrum indicates a higher concentration of the respective constituent chemical element.
