How to Use Assay Pills


Insertion into Sample Stream

Assay pills are provided in 1g pills. These are of known grade and are to be inserted into a bulk lot of blank material (available from Geostats if required).

The amount of blank material determines the expected grade of the "dosed" sample. Click here to download an Excel file to assist you in data recording.

Assessment of Results

Results on the "dosed" samples can be assessed against a target value. The target value is calculated as the grade of the pill divided by the mass of the blank in grams.
