Hydrogeochemistry

SGS provides a complete offering of hydrogeochemistry testing packages. These packages can provide the water chemistry for fresh water and groundwater samples encountered in mineral exploration, but not for salt water, brines, effluent solutions or metal-carrying solutions generated in processing circuits. SGS can analyze such samples, but the methods used take more time due to the presence of heavy matrices. In these cases, an extra charge will be incurred. Element detection limits also typically increase when you include these samples in your hydrogeochemical analysis.

If you require additional environmental tests beyond simple elemental analyses, we can help you seamlessly integrate with SGS’s environmental laboratory network.

SGS provides you with geochemical support both as a strategic partner and technical advisor. Through our global network of operations and laboratories, we deliver a broad spectrum of chemical analysis of water, rocks, soil and other natural materials. Our geochemical laboratories have standardized methods, sample preparation techniques, staff training programs and formally documented quality management systems including data acceptance systems documented in on-site materials. SGS is committed to providing unparalleled geochemical analysis, giving you an accurate understanding of the groundwater chemistry at your site.
