Inspection 360: The Role of Portable XRF for Gold Exploration and Mining

In this week's Inspection 360 session, learn about how portable XRF has a role to play in each stage of the gold life cycle, from exploration to extraction to processing. We’ll discuss the strengths—and limitations—of portable XRF, as well as recent innovations.

Dr. Michael Gazley, of RSC, will join the conversation to share his perspective on the role of pXRF in the minerals industry.

Director, International Mining Group

Todd Houlahan graduated from the University of Newcastle, Australia in 1993 with a Bachelor of Applied Science (Environmental) majoring in soils and hydrology. He then worked for 7 years as a contaminated land consultant in Australia and the UK with various companies before being introduced to handheld XRF in 2000 while remediating a Pb contaminated site in Sydney. From 2000-2004, he worked in Australia and used handheld XRF as a consultant, a contractor and in sales capacities on large number and wide variety of Geochem projects. From 2004-2008 Todd was on the metaphorical coal face of the mass introduction of modern x-ray tube based units to the exploration and mining sector supporting distributors and customers in the EMEA region. Since 2008, Todd has led the International Mining Group in a global capacity at Olympus and is now based out of Hertfordshire in the UK. For the past 15 years, he has dedicated his career to portable XRF applications in the minerals industry. His passion is best practice application of the technology, customer training and unique applications.
