Recovering gold and other valuable metals from used ore materials can be a profitable recovery venture. Rigaku NEX DE gives superior measurement of trace valuable metals in various used ore materials.
Elemental analysis by XRF is essential during mining and processing operations to monitor and control the limestone composition. EDXRF provides excellent performance for measuring carbonates and major oxides in limestone.
Technologies continue to advance and more green infrastructure is being produced such as electric vehicles and wind turbines. All need minerals like nickel, manganese, copper, uranium, and rare earth elements. As mining demands are increasing, we must efficiently find sources of essential minerals and metals by testing rock and mineral properties.
