simplify handling, we have calculated an overall mean from the method-specific values given in OREAS&#8217; certificates. During this calculation we only included full to nearly full- dissolution methods. An example of nearly full dissolution would be a so-called four acid digestion, which is capable of dissolving most minerals, but not all. Only if the 4-acid digestion value was in statistical agreement with the full dissolution values from e.g. Li-borate fusion was it included into the calculation of the final value. Please note, that values obtained from 4-acid digestions may underestimate the concentrations of elements contained in acid resistant minerals, such as zircon, chromite, rutile, barite and others. OREAS, the original manufacturer is not liable for any issues occurring from the use of this material since they took no part in the manufacturing of the Nano-Pellets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, we can also process other materials from OREAS to make Nano-Pellets.
