The Minerals edition of the Zetium spectrometer has excellent stability even in demanding industrial environments common to processing in the mineral and mining industries. Being pre-configured the minerals edition of Zetium provides highly sensitive and accurate elemental analyses, rapid throughput and maximum uptime and covers the full elemental range, from O to U in concentrations from ppm to 100 wt%. From exploration samples to mineral concentrates, ores to tailings, it delivers superior flexibility, analytical performance and stability.
The system comes complete with integrated X-Y sample handler, multi-element wide-range oxide (WROXI) analysis module and the state-of-the-art software SuperQ software (including the Virtual Analyst). Also the instrument is equipped with a dust removal device that protects the system from the dust that inevitably accompanies pressed and loose powders. The Minerals edition of Zetium can also include a small spot analysis tool for fast element distribution mapping.
Zetium embodies SumXcore technology, an integration of WD- and EDXRF. It provides ultimate sensitivity, versatility, robustness and speed. The mining industry with its need for extremely high sample throughputs benefits from this with time saving up to 50%.
