Figure 1. Principal component analysis (PCA) model displaying separation related to origins based on 27 minerals. PWT, Pingwu Fuzhuan brick tea; HNT, Hunan Fuzhuan brick tea; SNT, Shaanxi Fuzhuan brick tea; GZT, Guizhou Fuzhuan brick tea. R2X[Citation1] refers to the fraction of explained variation in principal component 1 (t[Citation1]) and R2X[Citation2] the fraction of explains variation in PC2 (t[Citation2])
