Analytical department has developed about 200 standardized documents for analyses of complex ores, concentrates of non-ferrous metals, lead, zinc, indium, cadmium, thallium, lead-, zinc-, bismuth-bearing alloys and other materials, acting in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan and CIS countries. Moreover, methods of analytical control over some non-ferrous metals (lead, zinc, indium, etc.) production were developed.
Analytical department has a Test Center, which carries out arbitration, certification, control, and accreditation analyses of mineral raw-materials, non-ferrous metallurgy products, and environmental medium.
The Test Center is accredited in the accreditation system of the Republic of Kazakhstan for compliance with the requirements of GOST ISO/IEC 17025-2009 ‘General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories’. Accreditation certificate No. KZ. И.07.0480 от 20.10.2014 г.
