CRMs That Out Perform The Rest
The OREAS range of 250+ Certified Reference Materials (CRMs) are developed for the mining, exploration and analytical industries covering various commodities, concentrations and mineralisation styles.
All materials are characterised by rigorous inter-laboratory testing programs that adhere to the standards outlined by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) 17034.
We produce 12,000kg batch sizes, providing exceptional continuity of supply, minimising disruptions and changeovers for our customers. Additionally, we have extensive experience preparing Custom (matrix-matched) CRMs from client supplied materials.
Our Certified Reference Materials are made from natural ore materials sourced from deposits across Australia, Southeast Asia, North and South America, and Africa. This includes refractory gold, gold occluded in silicates, and other metals hosted in refractory minerals.
Using natural ore source materials ensures our materials exhibit consistent behaviour with your field samples during sample fusion and digestion. This crucial characteristic maintains the integrity of the analytical process, delivering results that are directly comparable to your field samples.
We guarantee the homogeneity and stability of all materials, providing you with total confidence that any inconsistencies in QC data can be definitively attributed to laboratory measurement error, not sampling error of the CRM.
We are the only manufacturer that both test and provide a guarantee* of homogeneity of gold (and platinum group elements) across all OREAS and custom CRMs irrespective of the presence of coarse gold in the source materials.
