OREAS 614

OREAS 614 is a  certified reference material produced from a rhyodacite host blended with Bowdens Ag–Pb–Zn ore, a silver concentrate, and Cu–Au concentrates from DeGrussa and Mt Carlton.

The matrix replicates a felsic volcanic host carrying epithermal Ag–Au mineralisation with added Cu-sulfide tenor, making OREAS 614 well-suited for calibration and routine QA/QC of multi-element geochemical methods (fire assay for Au/Ag; multi-acid digestion ICP-OES/MS for base metals; S/As/Pb/Zn pathfinders) in exploration and metallurgical workflows.

OREAS 614 has been characterized using the following methods:

  • Gold via 25-50g fire assay with AAS or ICP-OES finis
  • Silver via 25-50g fire assay with Gravimetric finish
  • Gold via 10-40g aqua regia digestion with ICP-MS finish or AAS finish
  • Sulphur by infra-red combustion analysis
  • 4-Acid digestion for full elemental suite ICP-OES/MS finish
  • Aqua regia digestion for full elemental suite ICP-OES finish or AAS finish

Certified values for applicable analytes are operationally defined for each method, with results under OREAS ISO 17034 scope of accreditation.

Note: Analyte values are indicative only and may change when certified.
