Analytical Division

Analytical division is engaged in a wide spectrum of services in both “characterization” and “Research & development” . Testing & Research at Analytical Division is focused on Mineral, Metal & Materials chemistry, Analytical chemistry, Coal chemistry, Rare earths, Waste management and Nanomaterials. Analytical department is fully equipped with state of the art analytical instruments for testing of ores, minerals, metals, rock, soil and sediments, rare-earth elements, coal, miscellaneous as per National and International Standards and our experts are involved in developing tailored analytical methods for qualitative and quantitative analysis and also perform method validation for specific testing applications. The available test facilities include Wet classical, sample preparation, optical spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, phase quantification, pre-concentration etc. In addition to this provides analytical support to the ongoing R&D projects of other research divisions of JNARDDC and also provides analytical testing and characterization service to outside agencies.

Division is ISO 17025 : 2017 accredited by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) for chemical testing of Bauxite, Limestone, Iron ore, Chromite, and aluminum alloys.
