About
QA/QC
The sampling process incorporated blanks, standards (certified reference material) and duplicates. The blank samples were comprised of crushed limestone; two standard types were used which alternated from a high Ni concentration to a low Ni concentration and duplicates were created from half the material of the previous sample. QAQC samples were inserted at intervals of 20.
