Mineral Analysis

Gold & Copper Analysis

Combined quantitative determination of gold and copper in geological and mineral-processing samples, supporting exploration, grade evaluation and process-monitoring applications.

Gold, Copper & Silver Analysis

Combined quantitative determination of gold, copper and silver in geological and process samples, providing analytical data for exploration and ore characterization.

Gold, Copper & Sulphur Analysis

Combined determination of gold, copper and sulphur content to support ore characterization, metallurgical assessment and mineral-processing evaluation.

Gold, Copper, Silver & Sulphur Analysis

Combined quantitative determination of gold, copper, silver and sulphur in geological and process samples, supporting ore characterization and metallurgical assessment.

Multi-Element Analysis

Determination of multiple elements in a single sample for a broader analytical profile, supporting exploration and process-monitoring decisions.

Metallurgical Testing

Conventional Cyanide Leaching Test

Controlled laboratory-scale cyanide leaching tests for evaluating the gold extraction characteristics and potential metallurgical response of gold-bearing materials.

Cyanide Leaching Parameter Optimization

Systematic evaluation of key process parameters influencing cyanide leaching performance. Testing can assist in evaluating operating conditions for improved gold extraction and process efficiency.

Carbon Activity Test

Evaluation of activated carbon performance to support carbon-in-pulp and carbon-in-leach process monitoring and recovery assessment.

Metallic Screening & Gold Evaluation

Specialized evaluation of heterogeneous or coarse-gold-bearing samples where conventional sample preparation may be affected by uneven gold distribution or the nugget effect.

Certified Reference Materials (CRM)

Rock Pulp Certified Reference Materials

CRMs prepared from rock pulp for use in laboratory QA/QC programs, supporting analytical accuracy and consistency across testing runs.

Gold-Loaded Carbon Certified Reference Materials

CRMs prepared from gold-loaded carbon for use in laboratory QA/QC programs related to carbon-in-leach and carbon-in-pulp processes.
