PREPARING YOUR SAMPLE TO SEND TO US
You have Two Options for sample preparation
You can send small pieces to us and we can dry and grind your sample, or you can send a dry, finely ground sample. Please read the information below carefully.
- YOU WILL GET THE MOST ACCURATE ANALYTICAL RESULTS ON YOUR SAMPLE IF IT IS HOMOGENEOUS. THIS REQUIRES YOU TO TAKE SAMPLES FROM VARIOUS AREAS OF YOUR SOURCE MATERIAL OR AT LEAST FROM VARIOUS PLACES ON THE SAME SAMPLE ROCK OR SOIL.
- ALL SAMPLES MUST EVENTUALLY BE DRY AND IN A FINELY GROUND STATE. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO DO THE GRINDING YOURSELF, PLEASE ORDER GRINDING AND/OR DRYING FROM OUR LIST OF SERVICES. IF YOUR SAMPLE ARRIVES WET OR UNGROUND AND YOU HAVE NOT ORDERED DRYING OR GRINDING, WE WILL NEED TO CALL YOU SO YOU CAN UPGRADE YOUR ORDER.
- PLACE YOUR SAMPLE IN A STRONG ZIPLOCK PLASTIC BAG, SEAL TIGHTLY.
- YOU MUST CREATE A UNIQUE ID FOR EACH SAMPLE YOU SEND AND ATTACH IT TO EACH BAGGED SAMPLE. THIS IS SO YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF EXACTLY WHAT YOU SEND TO US.
- DOWNLOAD OUR FILLABLE ORDER FORM AND SEND IT WITH YOUR SAMPLE
- WE LOVE OUR CUSTOMERS, HOWEVER WE DO NOT GIVE REFUNDS AFTER SERVICES ARE PERFORMED.
