Using a laser ablation mass spectrometer (LA-ICP-MS) system, SRC’s Advanced Microanalysis Centre™ provides high-precision, in situ trace element analysis for the mining industry. The most common use of the LA-ICP-MS is measuring trace element concentrations in solid materials, but in practice, contained liquids and semi-solids can also be analyzed.
Key Feature
- Precision depth profiling and spot sizes down to 4μm for fluid inclusions
The LA-ICP-MS at the Advanced Microanalysis Centre™ is available on a fee-for-service basis.
