Identify minerals in the field

The oreXplorer is built specifically for demanding field conditions, featuring a durable housing, solid-state optical design with no moving parts, and a tough, metal-sheathed fiber-optic cable that can be easily replaced onsite.

Its streamlined operation includes single-button measurement with automatic dark-current correction and exposure adjustment.

The oreXplorer delivers higher resolution and sensitivity to identify hard-to-unmix minerals. An essential tool for vectoring purposes. The new industry standard for mineral analysis.
