Company profile

Chrysos Corporation

Chrysos Corporation is an Australian commercial provider of advanced elemental analysis technology for the global mining industry. Originally developed in collaboration with CSIRO, the company commercialises high-energy photon analysis units designed to displace traditional fire assay methods for precious and base metals. The technology uses high-energy X-rays to activate atomic nuclei in bulk mineral samples, measuring gamma rays to quantify gold, silver, copper, and other elements within minutes. The company provides fully automated analytical hardware alongside integrated software, leasing units to international miners, commercial laboratory operators, and exploration companies across Australia, Africa, North America, and South America.

Operations

Products and/or services of Chrysos Corporation

  • Commercial Unit Leasing and Long-Term Operations: Provision of high-energy photon analytical units to mining and laboratory customers under long-term deployment agreements, generating recurring lease fees alongside volume-based sample analysis charges across active mine sites and commercial testing centres globally.
  • Bulk Gold and Silver Assay Analysis: Rapid quantitative measurement of gold and silver content in large geological samples up to five hundred grams, providing non-destructive high-throughput assaying that replaces traditional fire assay methods for exploration and production operations.
  • Base Metal and Critical Mineral Quantitation: Multi-element analytical capabilities expanding elemental detection beyond precious metals to base metals and copper, delivering precise concentration data for mine planning, grade control, process plant optimisation, and metallurgical testing requirements.
  • Automated Analytical Hardware Manufacturing and Supply: Assembly, delivery, and installation of heavy-duty automated hardware containers containing high-energy X-ray sources and gamma detectors, engineered for deployment directly at remote mine sites or centralized commercial laboratory facilities.
  • Commercial Laboratory Partner Network Deployment: Strategic deployment of analytical units across third-party commercial testing networks, operating under partnership contracts with global laboratory providers to service external exploration companies, mine operators, and regional metallurgical clients.
  • Cloud Data Management and System Software: Integrated operational software and cloud data infrastructure that manages unit calibration, processes nuclear spectrometry signals, automates sample tracking, and delivers real-time quantitative assay reporting directly to client mine management systems.
