Geological Sample Preparation Redefined: Sustainable Strategies for Complete Digestion and Low Blanks

Geological sample preparation remains one of the most critical—and challenging—steps in achieving accurate and reproducible elemental analysis. In this seminar, we will explore how recent advances in microwave-assisted digestion and green chemistry principles are reshaping sample preparation workflows in geochemistry labs.
The session will feature a scientific overview of the digestion challenges associated with silicate-rich, refractory, and HFSE-bearing rocks, along with method development strategies.  
Professor Balz Kamber of Queensland University of Technology will also present practical insights and comparative data on microwave digestion approaches, with a focus on Single Reaction Chamber (SRC) technology.

Key topics will include:
  • Digestion protocols for geological matrices.
  • Optimized closed vessel digestion.
  • Blank control & reagent reduction.
  • Enhanced digestion confidence.
