Metallurgy & Mining Lab Software

LabKey connects drill programs to results, QA/QC to samples, and metallurgical test conditions to mass balances — in one configurable platform built for mining and metallurgical labs.

Structured data from the start. Reliable results at the end.

Mining and metallurgical labs operate under data quality pressure that most lab software wasn't built for. When preparation records live in separate spreadsheets, QA/QC failures go undetected— and the data your geologists and engineers rely on is less reliable than it looks.

LabKey tracks every sample from registration through analytical result, with chain of custody, preparation records, and QA/QC connected from the start. Process and metallurgical labs get linked records for feed characterization, test conditions, reagent schedules, and product grades — with mass balance calculated from structured data, not reconstructed from lab notebooks.

From fire assay and ICP-MS to bench-scale flotation and environmental monitoring, LabKey adapts to your workflows without assumptions built for a different industry. One configurable platform across exploration assay, metallurgical test, and process QC operations — with the data structure mining and metallurgical labs require.

Drill-to-result traceability

Link every assay result to its drill hole, preparation record, and QA/QC batch. Trace any result to its origin in minutes — with a complete, reviewable record at every stage.

QA/QC failures flagged, before results are shared

Standards, blanks, and field duplicates tracked in the same system as your samples — flagged at the batch level before they reach geology or the client.

Metallurgical data by design

Link feed characterization, reagent schedules, and product grades in one structured test record. Compare flotation performance across grind sizes and collector dosages without rebuilding the dataset. Mass balance calculated from connected data.
