Iron and Nickel

SGS has the global technical expertise to supply chemical analyses or assays for iron and nickel. We have the locations, independence, consistency and quality compliance requirements you need. Our experts will discuss with you what of detection, precision or accuracy you require, and then help you select the method that will best suit your purpose.

Iron and nickel can be analyzed in the following packages:

To select the method that is right for your purpose, please carefully review the measurement ranges and intended application. For example, MMI is a leach used for exploration, whereas Dimethylglyoxime (CON07V) is used for high concentrations of nickel in metal.

Iron Ore Analysis of Majors and Minors by Fusion-XRF

Iron ore occurs in many mineral forms (hematite, magnetite, goethite, limonite or siderite) and each has specific analysis requirements. Borate fusion with XRF analysis is an extremely robust technique for major and minor elemental analysis in complex mineralization and offers highly precise and accurate results for iron ore samples. This method is not suitable for high sulfide materials >1%.

XRF78S

Borate fusion with XRF for majors - Al₂O₃, CaO, Cr₂O₃, K₂O, MgO, MnO, Na₂O, P₂O₅, Fe₂O₃, SiO₂, TiO₂, V₂O₅, SUM, LOI and S as SO₃ and minors As, Ba, Cl, Co,
Cu, Ni, Pb, Sn, Sr, Ta, V, Zn, Zr
Available at specific sites only.
