This study aims to determine the urinary stones' chemical compositions, morphologies, and crystal size by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. This study has been conducted with 30 urinary stones from the 30 patients who were treated at the Department of Urology in Mersin University Hospital (Mersin, Turkey). With respect to the detected phase compositions, results were classified into four chemical groups: oxalates (43.3%), phosphates (13.3%), urates (6.7%), and mixed stone (36.7%).
