On the Beamlines: Researchers from Dalhousie University are studying platinum, a critical metal, to determine how mining companies could best locate the precious metal when they conduct field surveys.
Platinum is in high demand for use in catalytic converters and other industrial processes. It is also used in jewelry because of its strength and resistance to tarnishing.
CLS enables world-leading research thanks to funding by Innovation in Canada, NSERC / CRSNG, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Government of Saskatchewan, NRC/CNRC, and the University of Saskatchewan. Thank you!
