An indispensable "artifact" for mining analysis

In 2010, Olympus, a leader in the industry, developed rapidly after acquiring the US Inos System Co.
, Ltd.
, and the "Big Mac" in the sampling field was born
.
Olympus' high-tech "artifact" XRF analyzer, Vanta, has received unanimous praise in the industry since its launch!

The Vanta analyzer is the most advanced handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) equipment provided by Olympus so far.
It can perform fast and accurate elemental analysis and alloy discrimination for users who require accurate analysis levels in the field environment.

Features of Vanta Analyzer

Many geological survey and geological prospecting projects in China are often deep in uninhabited mountains and old forests or Gobi deserts.
The choice of equipment plays a vital role
.
A staff member of a well-known university in China talked about the changes in work after using the Vanta handheld analyzer, saying:

In the past: 3 people carried the instrument, carried the coil, dragged the generator box, and took a step to rest.

Now: Hold Vanta comfortably, take a step, take a step

In the past: Heavy rain, dust storms, and equipment failure in most cases

Now: With Vanta, you no longer have to deliberately avoid those emergencies, because it can easily resist rain and dust.

In the past: The equipment could not work in a low temperature or high temperature environment

Now: Vanta can work normally in the temperature range of -10℃ to 50℃, the measurement under high and low temperature environment is no longer a problem

In the past: the mountain road was slippery and the equipment was broken.
The rest was waiting for several days of repair work, and the repair cost was very expensive.

Now: Vanta is durable and very easy to use!

In the past: field measurement, samples taken back to the laboratory, data imported into third-party software, the entire process took a month

Now: Vanta can measure anytime and anywhere, and send it to the base in real time.
The data can also be seamlessly integrated into the software.
The analysis process is simple and fast.

Three advantages of Vanta analyzer

The Olympus Vanta analyzer can perform real-time element measurement in various environments (including harsh outdoor environments) and complete a series of geochemical applications
.
In the entire development cycle of mineral resources, Vanta analyzers can provide users with powerful performance and high flexibility

Advantage 1: Rugged and durable

The Vanta analyzer has passed the drop test, meets the IP65 rating standard, is dust-proof and waterproof; it can also work normally in the temperature range of -10°C to 50°C; the analyzer model is equipped with a silicon drift detector It is equipped with a detector shutter protection, which can prevent the analyzer from being damaged by perforation
.

Advantage 2: Improvement and innovation

The design goal of Vanta handheld analyzer is that its shape, interface and each circuit reach a higher level of similar products
.
It incorporates Olympus' newly developed Axon technology, which can provide users with highly repeatable and accurate test results

Advantage 3: Efficient and productive

Vanta analyzer can greatly increase the amount of analysis for users and make data archiving operations simple and easy
.
Various software functions for specific applications can improve the user's production efficiency, so that users can get a faster return on investment

Three, mining applications show the true color of Vanta

In every link of the entire industry chain, including mining exploration, mining, beneficiation, smelting, and mineral processing, the Vanta analyzer can quickly and conveniently test, and can obtain accurate data in various environments
.

Application of XRF&XRD in the mining industry chain

1.
Effectively used for the detection and analysis of various types of mineral deposits

The Vanta analyzer can be effectively used for the detection and analysis of various types of mineral deposits, including ores such as copper ore, rare earth elements such as yttrium, and shallow hydrothermal deposits such as antimony
.

2.
Exploration of green zone and brown zone

Compared with traditional laboratory instruments, the Vanta analyzer can provide users with "decision-making" geochemical data, and the data generation speed is much faster, so that users can quickly get a return on investment (ROI)
.
Quickly make correct decisions based on the data obtained in the exploration stage, which can allocate field work time more effectively, budget exploration (drilling and analysis) expenses more reasonably, and help to complete the plan arranged in the project timetable in advance

3.
Ore grade and processing control process

The Vanta analyzer helps many open-pit and underground mines of mining companies and their related processing plants to maintain long-term profitability
.
Using the Vanta analyzer, users can obtain accurate results with laboratory analysis levels a lot of time in advance, saving a lot of costs

4.

As a part of the typical environmental monitoring and restoration process, users can use the Vanta analyzer to identify the elements of interest in the soil, sediment, dust, and tailings in the still-used and closed industrial sites or nearby sites

5.

The Vanta analyzer plays an increasingly important role in academic research related to geological and environmental research projects, and can also be used as a teaching tool
