Mineral Sample Preparation

Mineral Sample Preparation is a vital stage in the process of minerals analytical testing.

The purpose of sample preparation is generally the production of a homogeneous sub-sample, representative of the material submitted to the laboratory. Correct preparation is critical to obtaining meaningful analytical results. The selection of the specific sample preparation procedures will depend on the type and size of the sample, the mineralogy as well as the client's analytical and budgetary requirements.
