Using Portable XRF Analysis for Geochemical Mapping in Mining

Using Portable XRF Analysis for Geochemical Mapping in Mining   The data collected during grade control processes helps mining geologists conduct quantitative geochemical analysis of metal concentrations. With this data, one can create composite maps of elemental distributions within a sample and determine where the best targets are located. Geochemical maps used in underground mining applications can…
