At Terra Mineral Lab (TML), our Uranium & Thorium Concentration Analysis provides precise quantification of elemental uranium (U) and thorium (Th) in mineral samples. This analysis is often required as an initial assessment before further radioactivity testing and plays a crucial role in regulatory compliance for mining and exploration activities.
Samples are documented, verified, and undergo physical, chemical, and radiation screening to determine suitability.
Cutting, crushing, milling, sieving, and digestion are performed for accurate detection.
We utilize ICP-MS, WD-XRF, and Micro-XRF for high-precision quantification of uranium and thorium concentrations.
Clients receive a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for regulatory and compliance use.
This analysis serves as an initial screening to determine the elemental concentration of uranium and thorium in mineral samples. Based on the results, industry players may proceed with radioactivity analysis to further verify compliance with regulatory thresholds. Additionally, this analysis supports applications for exemptions from regulatory control under the Atomic Energy Licensing Act 1984 (Act 304), if uranium and thorium concentrations fall below the specified limits.
No, this analysis only quantifies uranium and thorium concentration. Further testing for radioactivity (Bq/g) requires additional specialized analysis.
