Tailored Facilities for Different Needs
To cater to the diverse needs of the mining industry, we offer separate preparation facilities for different types of samples:
- Grade Control Samples - We maintain dedicated facilities to handle high-volume grade control samples quickly and accurately, supporting real-time decision-making at mining sites. These samples are processed to provide rapid turnaround times while maintaining strict accuracy standards.
- Exploration Samples - Our facilities are equipped to handle large batches of samples for exploration projects, ensuring consistent and reliable results. Our specialized techniques help exploration companies assess potential deposits with confidence.
- Low-Level Samples - Our low-level sample preparation facilities are ideal for trace-level analysis, providing exceptional sensitivity for detecting minor concentrations of valuable metals. This is critical for early-stage exploration and environmental monitoring.
By segregating sample preparation facilities, NAL minimizes the risk of cross-contamination and ensures that every sample receives the attention and care it deserves
