Downhole Analyser

SODERN always strives to adapt its technology to serve new customer requirements. The on line Down-hole Elemental Neutron Analyser (DeNA) measures the elemental composition of subsurface material in real time within the borehole­producing true in-situ elemental analysis. This powerful device is, in essence, a full elemental analyser CNATM that has been miniaturized to operate remotely underground in small diameter exploration or production holes.

 

This new on line analyser provides an alternative to the conventional process of core sampling, preparation and laboratory analysis offering a new process solution that is less labor intensive with analytical results that are far timelier. DeNA is an extremely valuable addition for mine exploration and mapping as well as its being important to production. By linking it with mapping software, it will actually provide an automatic real-time update of the mine plan. DeNA can be calibrated to analyze a wide variety of raw materials such as nickel or copper ore, coal or limestone.
