Mineral Spectrometer (NIR) ASD TerraSpec 4 Hi-Res

Recognized as the de facto technology for mineralogical analysis, the rugged portable ASD TerraSpec mineral spectrometers are trusted by top geologists for performing fast, precise pathfinder mineral identification for identification of exploration targets. The ASD TerraSpec 4 Hi-Res mineral analyzer brings new levels of efficacy to mineral exploration technology. This state-of-the-art mineral spectrometer offers enhanced performance in the SWIR 1 and 2 regions and a 6 nm resolution to help you determine the viability of mineral exploration targets faster and more precisely than ever before. These enhancements provide you with the ability to capture accurate spectral data more quickly, especially for samples with darker mineral features.

For mining exploration geologists, these improvements translate into faster data capture at exploration targets and drilling sites. The improved data quality provided by the ASD TerraSpec 4 Hi-Res mineral spectrometer also allows for accurate assessment of low-concentration and low-reflectance minerals, like iron-containing minerals such as serpentines and chlorites, which were previously difficult to measure. Benefits include:

Pair the ASD TerraSpec 4 Hi-Res mineral analyzer with The Spectral Geologist (TSG) software from Spectral Geoscience to analyze the spectra and produce mineralogical output products.

The ASD TerraSpec 4 Hi-Res mineral spectrometer can be used in many industry applications, including:

ASD instruments are used for onsite monitoring of kerogen and bitumen quantities

Petroleum geologists utilize ASD instruments for improved definition of deposit mineralogy, real-time strata correlation, hole stability monitoring and dolomite porosity determination.

Evaluate and monitor mineral and ore properties to maximize a variety of mining processes and operations.
