SAMPLE PREPARATION

As a general rule, samples should be taken from across the mine site (both the mine perimeter and varying subsurface depths) to replicate actual geological conditions and prevent data biases. We will help develop a plan to gather, transport, and prepare prepare your samples to ensure testing is reflective of geological conditions and operations.

 

We ensure sample integrity is maintained from receipt at our laboratory and throughout our test preparation protocols. We divide samples into smaller subsets and ensure they are uniform and large enough to account for metallurgical variations. We plan every step so that your samples accurately represent your mine site.
