PORTABLE XRF ANALYSIS
The portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) technique generates indicative assay results through the use of a generic calibration setup and a thorough QAQC procedure to provide a comprehensive element and concentration range that enables them to be used in exploration projects to ore grade control.
Through our extensive Research and Development program and a proven track record, Portable Spectral Services has partnered with Bruker to offer manufacturer approved and client specific calibrations, which provide superior results to the generic calibration and standardisation approach. This enables additional elements to be included and more precise and accurate concentration ranges.
Portable Spectral Services has also developed a set of manufacturer approved first principle calibrations for samples submitted that are not represented in the typical “off the shelf” calibration suite to optimise value and reduce the risk of inaccurate results, including false positives.
About portable XRF Technique
The portable X-ray Fluorescence (pXRF) technique generates indicative element concentrations, through the use of a generic calibration setup. By using the portable XRF with the accompaniment of a thorough QAQC procedure, PSS will be able to acquire a comprehensive element and concentration range that is ideal for:
- Investigating the composition of most materials (e.g., soil samples, drill pulps and grade control samples)
- Screen large volumes of samples, quickly and efficiently
- Receive reliable instant results onsite (e.g., for a wide range of trace and ore grade elements)
Sample Submission
Prior to, or at the time of receipt, a sample submission form is required as part of our sample chain of custody procedure.
