PCIGR is pleased to announce a joint venture with Nu instruments Ltd. (UK), a market-leading designer and manufacturer of high-performance mass spectrometers.

PCIGR’s newly completed ~$7.5 million UBC facility has been named “nUBC” to commemorate the partnership. The custom-built 2200 ft2 laboratories will house 4 Nu Instruments mass spectrometers and become an important demonstration facility and research & development centre.

As part of this new collaboration, PCIGR and Nu Instruments recently partnered on a >$2.4 million grant proposal to develop a student training program in geochemistry.
