Operational Efficiency and Rapid Turnaround
PhotonAssay™ has reduced Ravenswood’s assay turnaround times significantly, cutting the number of overdue assays from thousands to almost zero. This improvement supports timely decision-making in critical areas like grade control, drilling and blasting, and overall operational efficiency.
Data Quality and Decision Confidence
PhotonAssay’s larger sample size and non-destructive process delivers more accurate and consistent assay results, boosting confidence and enabling effective planning across departments (geology, exploration, and metallurgy). This accuracy has transformed grade control systems and led to more reliable ore reconciliations.
JORC Reporting and Economic Efficiency
PhotonAssay™ can be used for JORC-compliant reporting, allowing Ravenswood to meet industry standards in resource reporting. Additionally, PhotonAssay™ has proven to be more cost-effective, reducing assay-related expenses by 5 – 10%, which is critical for budget efficiency across large-scale operations.
