7. Basis of Sampling For the analytical results obtained to have any validity or meaning it is essential that appropriate sampling procedures be adopted. Thus sampling methods have 3 main groups. Those in which all the material is examined. Causal sampling on ad-hoc basis. Methods in which portions of the material are …

Mineral Processing Sampling Methods. Sampling consists of taking a small portion from the whole mass, which is as perfectly representative as possible. Selection of the proper method to be used in obtaining the sample is of first importance. The method selected must give accurate results and provide the quantity of sample …

Generally, denser sampling schemes are well suited for mineral exploration purposes. This is owing to the fact that a dense sampling scheme is useful for (1) describing the underlying geological variability of an area and (2) recognizing anomalous dispersion patterns of elements and multielements (Garrett, 1969).

The human factor or tendency to select for the sample too large a proportion of the best-looking pieces of ore, pieces of convenient size, or only the fines is more inherent in the application of this method than in other methods of sampling. Data on results of grab sampling at many mines indicate that usually they are too high.
