Greetings. I have a map of a soapstone sample. If I look at the raw data the CPS for Mn (thick redish orange line) is quite similar to that of Fe (thin orange line) https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/5f103246e5c4358affa4fa02/5f10326202b1a0740354cab4/2bab9066e592cb174971f873e79a9781/Capture.JPG

After I ran the data processing I looked at the summary stats graph for Mn, and saw that the values ranged from 20 to 100 ppm. https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/5f103246e5c4358affa4fa02/5f10328b59902f435c015b0b/dac5536199633d87edd17067424a5f8e/capture2.JPG

However, when I look at the cellspace images for this sample, the Mn ranges from very low to quite negative ppm values. However, despite being mostly negative, the pattern of which phase is which still shows very well in the image https://trello-attachments.s3.amazonaws.com/5f103246e5c4358affa4fa02/5f1032a55e319a0b43db9e2d/1cb429cf5430c651e82e1f6b7c44e6d4/capture3.JPG

Looking at the exported matrix used to generate the Mn image the numbers are almost all negative.

Therefore I am wondering why the numbers for Mn results in ppm look positive in the results tab, and negative when dealing with images?

I am also wondering what I can do to get these numbers positive? There is clearly usable data here, with visible differences in total Mn amounts from one phase to the next...
