INTERCEPT TM Technology is pleased to introduce a new user of our Intercept Mineral Preservation System (IMPS): Freeport-McMoRan, a Phoenix-based natural resource company.
IMPS, our state-of-the-art system, enables long-term preservation of core mineral samples. In the mining industry, core samples are used to prospect sites for new mine locations, and, therefore, accuracy of the sample reports is absolutely essential to ensure optimum business operations. By using IMPS, testing core samples involves unsealing and resealing our Intercept bags. (Previous sample storage methods were time-consuming, expensive, and often inaccurate.) Mineral samples are protected from corrosive gasses and other elements that can damage and hinder the accuracy of the core samples.
There are many benefits to using IMPS:
- Optimum core and mineral sample preservation
- Duplication of original conditions through direct sample processing
- Simplified packaging process
- No refrigeration required
- Location independent
- Access to Intercept service and maintenance team
