OREAS 20a

OREAS 20a has been prepared from barren I-Type hornblende-bearing granodiorite sourced from the Upper Devonian Lysterfield granodiorite complex located in south-eastern Melbourne, Australia. It is characterised for multiple analytical methodologies for full ICP-OES and ICP-MS elemental suites and contains very low background gold of less than 3 parts per billion.
