Soil Gas Hydrocarbons
Soil Gas Hydrocarbons (SGH) is an extractive procedure which releases organic compounds adsorbed on B- horizon soil samples. The SGH procedure provides a highly focussed and sensitive method which measures compounds in the C5-C17 range down to the low parts-per-trillion (ppt).
SGH
Advantages:
-
Delineation of mineral targets through thick
layers of cover rock and overburden
-
A cost-effective technique of prioritizing
targets
-
Over 160 hydrocarbon compounds ensures that SGH
anomalies are positively identified
-
Practical sample collection, handling and
shipping protocols with one trip to the field reduces costs
-
Robust method - SGH is uninfluenced by cultural
activity
-
Backed by over 25 years experience in GC/MS
related research & development
-
SGH has been successful in difficult terrain.
Samples can be near surface soils, peat, humus, till, sand, submerged
lake-bottom sediments, and even snow
SGH is used frequently for the following commodities: - Gold - Kimberlites - Copper - VMS - Nickel - SEDEX - Polymetalic - PGE - REE - Wet Gas - Oil - Coal
