Ores & Minerals

Sadguru Lab offers a wide range of  sampling, and testing services that help mining companies and ore exporters quickly and efficiently analyze mineral ores and metal deposits in both exploration and production phases of works. 

There is a high demand from the mining industry to analyze the quality and extent of metals in base metal ores. It is important to determine the elemental and mineralogical composition of an ore body to quantify the commercial feasibility of a mine.

Sadguru’s Minerals and Ores experts have successfully serviced the mining commodity market offering at source, shipment, and umpire analysis for commercial settlement. We combine our expertise with the latest testing equipment to provide rapid, reliable, and cost-effective analytical solutions tailored to specific client requirements.
