Findings of an ongoing regional evaluation study over concealed Proterozoic lithologies known to host magmatic nickel sulphides with potential to host other base-metal, gold and rare earth elements (“REE”) systems within the Fraser Range, Western Australia.
These principles below will provide a good basis for understanding quality XRF data from analysis. We aim to set even the most novice of users on the right track to collecting reliable portable XRF data that will stand the test of time. Accuracy and Precision The general saying is that “portable XRF instruments are […]
Periodic Table of Elements highlighting the light elements As we know, portable XRF technology works by bombarding samples with X-rays and causing their atoms to fluoresce characteristic X-rays of the elements that they contain. The energy of the fluorescent X-rays corresponds directly to the atomic number of the element. Light elements have energy levels that […]
Licensing Portable XRFs in Australia An important part of using a portable XRF (pXRF) is the correct licencing of the instrument in the state where it is being used. This ensures that the instruments are being used safely and responsibly and can vary from state to state within Australia. Failure to comply with these regulations […]
