OUR VISION

X-ray Mineral Services Finland Oy (XMSF) was established in 2020 as a response to the growing needs in analytical services for the battery value chain and other sectors in the circular economy. Our office is located in Espoo, Finland at the Otaniemi campus, surrounded by prominent academic and research institutes. 

XMSF and X-ray Mineral Services Ltd (UK) are part of the Hafren Scientific Group, working together as experts in mineralogical and chemical analysis using X-ray Diffraction, X-ray Fluorescence and a variety of other in-house state-of-the-art analytical techniques. We have a fully equipped laboratory in the UK and offer confidential, comprehensive and efficient analysis of minerals and other primary and secondary materials at competitive pricing. Our staff have over 50 years of combined experience in the interpretation and reporting of data.

X-ray Mineral Services Finland (XMSF) perustettiin vuonna 2020 tuottamaan analyysipalveluita akkuarvoketjun ja kiertotalouden toimijoille. Toimistomme sijaitsee Espoossa Otaniemen kampuksella muiden alan tutkimusorganisaatioiden ja yritysten parissa. 

XMSF ja Iso-Britanniassa toimiva X-ray Mineral Services Ltd ovat osa Hafren Scientific konsernia, joka tarjoaa mineralogisia ja kemiallisia analyysipalveluita käyttäen röntgendiffraktio, röntgenfluoresenssi, sekä useita muita analyysimenetelmiä. Laboratoriomme Walesissa tuottaa kustannustehokkaita ja asiakkaan tarpeiseen räätälöityjä analyysejä mineraaleista ja muista primääri- ja sekundäärimateriaaleista. Henkilökunnallamme on yli 50 vuoden kokemus datan tulkinnasta ja raportoinnista

APPLICATIONS

Battery Value Chain

X-ray Mineral Services Finland is developing a more effective way of characterising complex battery minerals, including Li, Ni, Co, Cu, Mn, graphite, REE and other critical raw materials, in the context of exploration, mining and mineral processing. 

Exploration and Mineral Processing

X-ray Mineral Services has considerable experience in the characterisation of raw materials from exploration and mining. This traditionally involves the analysis of drill cores, rocks and concentrates from various sources for elemental concentrations and bulk mineralogy using XRF, XRD and ICP

Environmental

The key to environmental monitoring is analytical testing. X-ray Mineral Services can provide a comprehensive suite of analytical techniques for clients operating in the environmental protection sector. This includes XRF, ICP, XRD of soil, sediments, sludge and slag to determine any elemental toxicity and mineral phase.

Material Recycling

Comprehensive characterisation of recycled material for CRMs using innovative META characterisation, new bespoke workflows have been developed for black mass and WEEE.
