Current Range of Reference Materials
The information on this page is updated daily. Please refer to the table below for the current range of Reference Materials available in stock. Local agents may carry stocks of other Rocklabs Reference Materials that are in addition to the list below.
The Certificates of Analysis for each Reference Material can be viewed by clicking on the Reference Material name in the first column.
Purchasers can get a more rapid service by going through our local agents.
If you require any information on the reference materials please contact us and we can provide the information you require or discuss with you further.
Please feel free to download a copy of our Reference Materials brochure.
Reference Materials Plotting Chart is now available for download.
Please note that "30g" and "50g" are nominal values only. Approximately 2 grams extra are included
in each sachet so that it is easier to scoop out the nominal weight without having to scrape out the last
traces of powder in the bottom of the sachet.
The sachets are available with either Labcheck or Geocheck labels. Labcheck labels have the name of
the Reference Material (e.g. WG2) clearly stated on the label. Geocheck labels do not have the name of
the Reference Material stated on the label but do have a unique number for ready identification by the
purchaser. Jars are packed in cartons containing 6 jars (i.e. 15 kg) but the minimum order is one jar.
Customised Reference Materials
Do you have mine material or an exploration target that has an unusual matrix? We may be able to
produce a Reference Material that has a similar mineral composition to your material. We would
make this from materials known to be stable and from screened minerals that contain finely
divided gold.
The matrix-matched mineral components will be blended together and packaged in sachets or jars
(your preference) and a formal homogeneity test carried out. Samples can be sent out for consensus
testing and a formal certificate supplied if required. To obtain a quote, contact us directly or
your nearest ROCKLABS agent.
