How does a laboratory prove that its results are correct?
The answer is simple — reference standards.
Reference materials are not just samples.
They are benchmarks of truth.
At Orelysis, we develop and supply high-quality reference standards used to:
• Validate analytical accuracy
• Monitor laboratory performance
• Detect drift and bias
• Support ISO 17025 compliance
A laboratory without proper reference standards is operating without a compass.
Our reference standards are:
✔ Carefully prepared
✔ Characterised and documented
✔ Suitable for routine QA/QC programs
✔ Designed for real-world geological matrices
They help laboratories answer critical questions:
• Are our results accurate?
• Are we consistent over time?
• Can clients trust our data?
For mining companies, reference standards provide confidence that reported grades are real, not artefacts of error.
For laboratories, they are tools of accountability and professional credibility.
In a world where one decimal point can change a project’s value by millions, standards are not optional.
Orelysis helps laboratories and mining companies build confidence — result by result.
