UpDeep project produced standard reference materials (SRM) suitable for surface geochemical exploration surveys. The available SRMs are listed below.
For enquires about the material please contact jens.ronnqvist@geopool.fi
Soils:
UpDeep standard reference materials (SRM) are intended to be used in weak leach (i.e. geochemical) analysis for providing an affordable method of controlling the quality of soil samples for mineral exploration purposes. For the user of the UpDeep SRMs, the purpose is to externally quantify laboratory precision as relative standard deviation and laboratory accuracy in the form of bias.

Plants:
UpDeep standard reference materials (SRM) are intended to be used in vegetation (i.e. biogeochemical) analysis for providing an affordable method of controlling the quality of plant samples for mineral exploration purposes. For the user of the UpDeep SRMs, the purpose is to externally quantify laboratory accuracy and precision.

PRM :
We can make project specific project reference materials (PRM). The PRMs are made accordingly to a protocol developed in the UpDeep project.
