16 | AcmeLabs Schedule of Services & F ees 2013 Rock & Drill Core Soil, T ill & Sediment Gr oup 4A W hole Rock Major and Minor Elements A classical whole-rock analysis for 11 major oxides and several minor elements by ICP- emission spectrometry following a lithium borate fusion and dilute acid digestion of a 0.2g sample pulp. Package includes loss on ignition (LOI) by sintering at 1000°C (package code 2A05) and Leco analysis for total carbon and sulphur (package code 2A12). Requires a 5g sample pulp. Co d e G r o u p 4 A C d n 4 A 01 A n y 1 e l e m e n t $ 16 . 0 5 4 A 0 2 B a s i c S u i t e ( 2 1 p a ra m e t e r s ) $ 3 0. 0 0 4 A 03 E x t end e d P ac k a g e * ( B a s i c S u i t e + C e C o C u Z n ) $ 33 . 6 0 4 A 0 4 M a j o r O x i d e s & L O I ( n o C o r S ) $ 25 . 6 0 Gr oup 4B T r ace Elements by ICP-MS Group 4B incorporates two separate ICP-MS analyses to optimize determination of a 45-element suite of trace elements. Rare earths and refractory elements report from a lithium borate decomposition (same as that used in Group 4A) to give total abun - dances. Precious metals, base metals and their as - sociated pathfnder elements (highlighted in adjacent element table) are generated from an aqua regia digestion (same as package code 1DX1). Requires a 5g sample pulp.

X-ray fuorescence is a physical method that does not suf fer from diffculties such as small sample size, incom - plete dissolution, matrix ef fects and sample inhomogeneity found in “wet” methods. Requires a 12g sample pulp.
