SisuROCK
Hyperspectral Core Imaging Station
SisuROCK is a fully automated hyperspectral imaging instrument for easy and high speed scanning of drill cores and other geological samples. It is capable of imaging a single drill core in a high resolution mode or a whole core box in a high speed scanning mode. Hyperspectral imaging data of a whole core box is acquired in less than 15 seconds, highly improving productivity in drill core analysis.
ì An average data collection rate of 1 200 metres of core per day was achieved in an exploration project, where SisuROCK was operated in the full core tray mode with spatial resolution of 2 mm. Hyperspectral data from a total of 17 000 metres of core was collected in two weeks. î
SisuROCK provides an efficient and high throughput production tool for the mining industry and a versatile and flexible analysis tool for geological research applications. SisuROCK applies Specimís "state of the art" hyperspectral cameras for rapid collection of hyperspectral data from various geological samples.
