ColdBlock Accelerates Assaying Process for Mining Labs Worldwide

ColdBlock sample digestion technology significantly accelerates the assaying process for mining labs around the globe. Tested, validated, and now in use by several leading global commercial labs, and in some of the world’s largest mining operations, ColdBlock is becoming a new industry standard for base metal, polymetallic, lithium, rare earth, and uranium mining operations.

Sample digestion is the most time-consuming, hazardous, and labour-intensive step in the assaying process. Samples being sent from the mill and mine teams to the lab require fast and accurate determination of elemental content. Sample digestion using ColdBlock significantly shortens this process, from hours to minutes, and the results are aligned with results achieved using other methods.

Other benefits include:

  • Faster turnaround times
  • Increased lab throughput
  • Improved workplace safety
  • Reduced operational costs
