Optical Gold Detection · Field Deployed

Rapid field-based gold detection

HyperGOLD gives exploration teams, producers, and field operators a faster way to identify and characterize free gold particles at or near the point of sampling, delivering rapid insight into particle count, size distribution, morphology, and estimated grade from pre-concentrated samples.

The HyperGOLD solution

HyperGOLD is an optical gold detection system optimized for identifying free gold particles in pre-concentrated, size-classified samples. The system reliably distinguishes gold from challenging background materials and provides practical outputs that support exploration, production, and prospecting workflows.

Fast results at the point of sampling

Each analysis takes approximately 15 seconds, with live reporting on all sample data. Teams can process 300+ tests per day without the need for a highly skilled operator, helping accelerate field programs and reduce decision-making delays.

Actionable outputs

HyperGOLD delivers more than a simple yes-or-no result. Each test provides quantitative and visual insight that can help teams understand where gold is present, how it appears, and how results compare across samples or locations.

Gold particle count reported in seconds

Particle size distribution to identify dominant grain-size ranges

Reliable detection of gold particles as small as 50 microns

Shape and morphology insights to compare samples from different areas

Estimated gold grade to support vectoring and target prioritization

Gold identification in challenging background matrices, including pyrite, chalcopyrite, and mica

Key benefits

Faster field decisions

Reduce the time between sample collection and useful results so teams can act while opportunities are still in front of them.

Quantitative gold intelligence

Move beyond visual inspection with particle counts, size data, morphology information, and estimated grade outputs that support confident technical decisions.

Field-ready deployment

Bring gold detection closer to the sample source with a compact system designed for mobile use, simple setup, and practical operation.

Non-destructive and safer to operate

Samples remain unaltered after analysis, allowing material to be stored, archived, or sent for further testing. HyperGOLD does not require hazardous acids and avoids the ionizing radiation risks associated with some comparable detection techniques.
