#GSBprojects LIBS-SCReeN (BELSPO) utilise le Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) pour cibler des éléments chimiques critiques (Ge+Ga) dans les gisements belges de Zn et Pb. Le LIBS est également testé pour la caractérisation des sols et la surveillance de l'environnement.

Did you know that LIBS-SCReeN is in close collaboration with ROBOMINERS Project? Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy is one of the techniques employed for ore detection in deposits that are small & difficult to access. Here is a demo of the analytical circuit using pumped water⬇️

8thJune, 3 pm🗣️ SAVE THE DATE! Euromines we are excited to host #EUGreenWeek Partner event. Let's discuss Building Skills and Talents for Sustainable Raw Materials Industry. Stay tuned! #EuropeanYearOfSkills #EUGreenWeek #RawMaterials #SustainableMining #StrategicAutonomy #EU

Although our focus is on critical raw materials in zinc-lead deposits, did you know that exploration & research can also count on our Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy #LIBS instruments for fast identification & mapping of other critical raw materials such as lithium?🔋

Going to #IAMG2023? Then do not miss the oral presentation by Simon Nachtergaele showing the work being carried out in the LIBS-SCReeN project⬇️ S23 Automated Lithology S2303 "Automated mineralogy using LIBS and deep learning" 🗓️Thu Aug 10th @ 10:40 📍Auditorium

Soils are the foundation of our food security, yet less than 40% of EU soils are healthy. We have proposed a new Soil Monitoring Law to help increase our resilience against climate change and ensure that all soils are healthy by 2050. Learn more with our #EUDataCrunch 👇

Presenting the Belspo LIBS-SCReeN project (ep. 2) 🎬 Using Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy #LIBS we develop methods for fast & reliable identification of potential pollutants in soils, helping to monitor soil health & contributing to the EU's new Soil Monitoring Law⬇️
