Analytical Testing Services

Expertise

Gold, silver, platinum group metals analyzed to international standards.

ICP-MS and ICP-OES analysis for exploration, grade control, and metallurgical accounting. Custom element suites for any commodity.

QEMSCAN and MLA analysis for ore characterization, liberation studies, and process optimization. Critical for complex polymetallic deposits and geometallurgical programs.

XRF for rapid elemental analysis. XRD for mineral identification and clay characterization. Essential for understanding ore variability.

Density, porosity, and Bond Work Index. Foundation data for engineering studies.

When we build your plant, we tested your ore in our own laboratory, developed the flowsheet in our pilot plant, and engineered every detail.

RDi partners with multiple analytical laboratories for assaying for project support and rapid turnaround on testwork programs.

For advanced mineralogical and compositional analysis, RDi partners with neighboring laboratories to provide X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), and quantitative mineral characterization via QEMSCAN and mineral liberation analysis (MLA). This partnership model gives clients access to a full analytical suite without the overhead of maintaining every instrument in-house, while keeping turnaround times tight through geographic proximity and established working relationships.
