Smooth-walled bottles
introduce test error

Historically, cyanide bottle roll leach tests have been run in smooth-walled bottles in which mixing of the solid with the solution is difficult and sometimes nonexistent.

Material slides along the bottom if the bottle rotates too slowly — and clings to the walls if rotated too quickly. In either case, results are compromised.

LIFTERBOTTLE™ with its integrated lifters ensures proper mixing every time. Take the guesswork out of leachability testing and ensure reproducible metallurgical results.

Smooth-Walled Bottle

Inconsistent mixing. Material slides or clings. Unreliable results.

VS
LIFTERBOTTLE™

Integrated lifters. Proper agitation. Reproducible results every time.
