Thermo Scientific - NITON Analyzers

NITON analyzers, manufactured by Thermo Fisher Scientific, are the world’s leading portable X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) instrument.

The Thermo Scientific NITON XLi, XLp and XLt 500 Series XRF analyzers approach the performance of lab-grade analysis with unmatched portability and ease of use. They are ideal for measuring elemental concentrations of exploration samples, Reverse Circulation (RC) and Rotary Air Blast (RAB) drill cuttings, ores, soils, sediments, feeds, cores, and processed material-providing critical information in real time to the on-site decision makers.

Whatever the application, the NITON XLi, XLp and XLt 500 Series XRF instruments are invaluable on-site screening tools when 'real-time' results are absolutely necessary.

ANALYZING ELEMENTAL COMPOSITION OF EXPLORATION SAMPLES, ORES, FEEDS, CONCENTRATES AND TAILINGS

The NITON XLi, XLp and XLt 500 Series XRF analyzers are rugged, economical and lightweight portable instruments that provide fast and accurate elemental composition of exploration samples- from powders to drill cores, ores, feeds, concentrates and tailings. Thermo Scientific NITON portable XRF analyzers offer real-time, on-site results, reducing turnaround times for results from days to seconds.

The NITON XLi, XLp and XLt 500 Series XRF analyzers are the instruments of choice for the following flagship mining-related applications:

Green fields / mineral exploration - geochemical anomaly determination of soil, sediment and drill hole samples in the field, to utilize exploration expenditure more efficiently.

Ore-body assessment - assess ore-grade material on-site without the wait or cost of lost production and analysis time associated with an outside laboratory. Spot screen for elemental identification immediately.

Mill heads, tailings and concentrate analysis - analyze feeds, concentrates and tailings quickly and accurately to establish and track the efficiency of the extraction and enrichment processes.

Mine mapping and grade control - guide drilling programs and manage excavation and blasting by measuring multiple samples on-site with the either the NITON XLi, XLp or XLt 500 Series analyzer in real-time.

Environmental monitoring - monitor low-levels of metal concentrations in by-products and waste streams on-site.
