X-ray fluorescence spectrometry analysis in China had experienced 60 years, and the number of relevant technical documents had been over ten thousand. The literature “bibliometric analysis on research trend of X-ray fluorescence spectrometry based on CNKI” and the book of X-ray spectrometry literature index in China were published in 2019. Based on this literature, this paper explained the types, sources and retrieval of the literature in China. The main points of the two kinds of literature were introduced, and the main achievements of statistical metrology were reviewed. The main contents included: the total number of documents and the annual distribution of English literature; the distribution of the total number of periodicals and English literature and the annual distribution of the special literature; the total number of the author's literature, the number of the first author's literature, the total amount of English literature and the total number of the first author's literature; the total number of the literature presented by the author in three periods: 1960—1990, 1960—2000 and 1960—2015. The number of papers and the number of first authors' literature; the total number of literature ≥40 and the first author literature ≥15 (the number of authors: 16), the numbers of the first authors, the total numbers of English literature, the numbers of first author literature in English, the main topics and professional fields of the first authors; the structure of the top 10 papers and the top 10 cited frequency; the overall distribution of periodicals and the top 10 Journal of the numbers of documents; Specialized (or Translated) works and their publishing houses. Finally, the existing shortcomings of the two Bibliometrics studies and the expectation of the experts and technicians of X-ray spectroscopy to participate in the Bibliometrics research were discussed.
