Spectral Evolution oreX Field Portable Spectrometers for Mining

► Rapid data/spectra collection in the field - allowing you to take more scans in less time
► High resolution in a field instrument
► High signal-to-noise ratio for improved reflectance values
► Fast start-up and use with no optimization step required between scans
► Sturdy construction for harsh field environments
► Reliable operation with no moving optics and a robust fiber optic cable with quick-disconnect
► Rugged and reliable mineral contact probes for single click field measurements to measure outcrops, cores and chip trays.

Using our portable UV/VIS/NIR reflectance geological spectrometers, you can identify:

► Al(OH) group minerals
► Sulphates
► Si(OH) group minerals
► Fe(OH) group minerals
► Mg(OH) group minerals
► Carbonate group minerals
► Selected OH-bearing silicates
► Selected zeolites
► Selected rare earth element (REE)-bearing minerals
► Selected massive sulphides

oreXpress, oreXplorer and oreXpert NIR spectrometers provide a number of unique, in-field benefits, including:

► Full UV/VIS/NIR spectral range of 350-2500nm
► Fast scanning and ease-of-use - one touch operation, auto- optimization on every scan
► Portable, lightweight unit with optional rugged handheld tablet - easy for one person to use
► Your tablet becomes your field notebook - record audio notes, add your GPS position, take pictures of your samples, save it all and tag it to your scan
► Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries- lightweight, four hour operating life
► Immediate start-up - no warm up - start taking readings immediately to take advantage of daylight and weather
► DARWin SP data acquisition software collects your critical data, saves in ASCII files - no post-processing necessary - use with SpecMIN, GRAMS, TSG, Unscrambler from Camo Analytics and other 3rd party software

Our oreXpress NIR spectrometers are available with EZ-ID software that provides:
►  Fast and accurate identification of an unknown mineral to a known library sample
►  Easy-to-use, just collect your scan and see the results in real time
►  Simple, consistent user-interface
►  Pattern matching algorithms in interactive mode that can be used with SpecMIN, USGS, GeoSPEC and other libraries for mineral identification
►  Software provides a weighted score for best matches
►  Include or exclude spectral regions of interest for optimal results and display results and scores in multiple columns in different combinations for comparison and unmixing
►  Save match regions as pre-sets to facilitate looking for similar minerals
►  Scalars that provide additional information on alteration
►  The ability to create your own library of known samples and the option to import and convert ASD files for use with EZ-ID.
