AMIS0200 Cu 1.06 Percent Co 3717 ppm Oxide Tenke
Description
Copper cobalt oxide sample supplied for mineral analysis exploration and metallurgical evaluation.
AMIS0200 is a Certified Reference Material (CRM) produced by African Mineral Standards (AMIS), composed of oxide copper-cobalt ore from the Tenke Fungurume mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It is designed for laboratory quality control with certified concentrations.
Key Details of AMIS0200:
-
- Material Source: Run-of-mine oxide ore from the Tenke Fungurume (Tenke) mine in Katanga Province, DRC.
- Mineralogy: The material represents oxidized mineralization, typically containing minerals like malachite, chrysocolla, and heterogenite.
- Purpose: Used as a control sample (standard) in mining laboratories to monitor instrument bias and analytical precision for Copper and Cobalt analysis.
The material is prepared to be matrix-matched for laboratories analyzing similar oxide copper-cobalt ores, often analyzed using techniques like multi-acid digestion or fusion followed by ICP-OES/AAS.
