Cement works control
Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Fe — monitoring raw meal and clinker.
Ores and mining
Analyse the ore where it comes out, without waiting for the lab
On a deposit, analysis turnaround is an operating cost. Portable XRF brings elemental measurement back to the working face, the stockpile and the conveyor — and reserves the laboratory for the points that genuinely decide.
We have already supported operations in Greece, Rwanda, the DRC, Mauritania, New Caledonia and India.

On the deposit
From assessing a concession to the finished product
The same technique answers very different questions depending on the stage: providing the data used to estimate a concession's resource before investing, verifying a grade after beneficiation, or checking the consistency of a batch at shipping.
What changes from one stage to the next is not the instrument — it is the sampling plan and the calibration.

Preparation
Our sampling equipment
A heterogeneous ore cannot be measured at random
Crushing, grinding, sieving, drying, splitting, pressing into a cell, sometimes fusion into a bead: the preparation chain decides what the displayed figure is worth. On site, it has to work with the means available.
We supply the sampling and preparation tools, and train the operators who will use them.
Mines and ores
From the mine face to the finished product: sampling, preparation and elemental analysis on site, where the sample cannot travel.
Sample preparation
A measurement is worth no more than the sample behind it. Grinding, sieving, drying, pressing, fusion — on site, with the means available.

An ore to measure on site?
We measure your ore, on a sample or at the deposit, and advise you on the instrument and preparation to monitor it in production.
