What this note covers

  • PACU01A and PACU01 copper assay services: LDL, LOQ, grade offsets, and precision from 0.05 wt% to above 2 wt% at 72 samples/hour

  • High copper service (PACU01H): upper detection limit extended to 30 wt%

  • Interfering elements — germanium, praseodymium, silver, antimony, zinc, phosphorus, and nitrogen — and how each affects copper measurement

  • Material characterisation requirements: when and why the PACU01A generic grade offset applies, and what triggers the tailored PACU01 service

  • Moist sample handling up to approximately 30% moisture, with grades reported on an as-received basis by default
