This proposed research project will change the ways that mineral and ore samples are analyzed. When complete, the technology will provide faster, cheaper, safer assays for the mining industry and will enable close to real-time analysis results for minerals and ores. The overall vision for the technology will be that a ground ore or mineral sample will be weighed into a reaction tube and, through automation, the entire sample preparation process will be completely automated and samples will be delivered directly into sample vials for final determination of elemental concentrations.

这项拟议的研究项目将改变矿物和矿石样品的分析方法。一旦完成，该技术将为采矿业提供更快、更便宜、更安全的分析，并将为矿物和矿石提供接近实时的分析结果。该技术的总体设想是将研磨的矿石或矿物样品称重放入反应管中，通过自动化，整个样品制备过程将完全自动化，样品将直接送入样品瓶中，以最终确定元素浓度。
