Instant Geochemistry & Mineralogy
SciAps field portable LIBS and XRF analyzers provide instant
analysis of major and trace elements. Get the entire picture for
research, exploration, grade control, block modeling, process
optimization and environmental clean-up.
LIBS
In-field analysis of Li, Be, B, C, Na, and F. Something no other
handheld analyzer can do. Lithium in hard rocks and briners.
High sensitivity to other major elements Mg, Si, Al, Ca, K.
Map element distribution using our GeoChem Pro app.
XRF
Smallest, fastest, most precise FPXRF available. Perfect for
gold pathfinders, transition and heavy metals.

Handheld LIBS
It's All About the Technology
The acceptance of handheld LIBS for in-field geochemistry is ac
celerating. LIBS or Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy is an
analytical technique where, using a laser, a plasma is created on
the sample. As the plasma cools characteristic photons are emit
ted and measured to determine elemental presence and concen
tration at the sampled location.
The SciAps Z features the most advanced LIBS technology of any
handheld. The Z utilizes the most powerful laser, operating at 5-6
mJ/pulse, up to 50 Hz rep rate, Class 3B 1064nm wavelength. The
spectrometer range of 190 nm out to 950 nm delivers full periodic
table coverage.
The patented OPTi-purge™ integrated argon gas purge (optional)
yields better limits of detection for many elements compared to
air-based analysis. Internal 30 stage raster the laser allowing for
surgical analysis of inclusions or veins if desired, all easily viewed
