Home / Services / Geochemical Analysis
Accurate geochemical data is essential for understanding mineral systems, defining resources, evaluating ore quality and controlling mining and processing performance. Orelysis coordinates geochemical analytical services through independent, internationally accredited laboratory partners, giving exploration and mining clients access to reliable data supported by appropriate analytical methods and strong quality systems.
Our approach is built around the purpose of the project. We consider the sample type, target elements, expected concentration range, mineralogy, required detection limits and stage of the mining lifecycle so that the analytical route is fit for purpose and the resulting data can support confident technical and commercial decisions.
Geochemical Analysis Across the Mining Lifecycle
Exploration Geochemistry
Orelysis supports greenfield and brownfield exploration programs with high quality, multi element geochemical data designed to identify subtle anomalies, define geochemical signatures, understand element associations and guide target generation. Analytical programs can be tailored to soils, stream sediments, rocks, drill core, drill chips and other geological materials, with methods selected to suit the geology, mineralisation style and exploration stage. Advanced techniques such as ICP MS and ICP OES provide sensitive determination of major, trace and pathfinder elements, supporting anomaly delineation, lithogeochemical interpretation, mineral system vectoring and drill target refinement. Robust quality control using certified reference materials, blanks and standards helps ensure accurate, precise and traceable analytical results.

Resource Definition and Evaluation
As projects advance, analytical requirements shift toward greater precision, repeatability and confidence. Orelysis supports resource definition programs with analytical solutions suitable for drill core, reverse circulation samples, rock chips and other materials used to define grade distribution, lithology and mineralisation
Mine Development and Grade Control
For development and operating mines, reliable assays are required to support ore control, stockpile management, reconciliation and operational decisions. Analytical methods can be selected to suit higher grade samples, complex matrices and the tighter precision required for production environments
Metallurgical and Process Support
Geochemical analysis can also support metallurgical testwork, process monitoring and investigation of concentrates, products and selected process materials. Method selection is aligned to the composition of the material and the technical question that must be answered.
