Dark matter lab funded
ANSTO to ensure ultra-low radiation environment in newly-funded Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory.
James Lowe is a Senior Chemical Engineer in the Pilot Plant Operations group within the ANSTO Minerals business unit and has over 13 years’ experience in the minerals industry.
Radioanalytical Facility
ANSTO’s radioanalytical facilities are recognised internationally and have extensive experience in the measurement of radioactivity from a wide variety of matrices. Our primary radoianalytical techniques include gamma spectrometry and alpha spectrometry.
Analytical Facility
ANSTO Analytical Facility conducts a range of analyses required to support our commercial projects, and can analyse everything from simple samples to complex matrices not typically dealt with by standard commercial laboratories.
Mineralogy Facility
Our dedicated mineralogists provide specialised knowledge on the mineralogy of ores/concentrates and the wide variety of solids and residues typically generated in hydromet processes. We have well-equipped facilities that can handle a diverse range of samples, particularly those containing elevated concentrations of uranium and thorium.
Dr.
Bob Ring is a Principal Consultant within ANSTO's minerals area.
OPAL multi-purpose reactor
Australia’s Open Pool Australian Lightwater (OPAL) reactor is a state-of-the-art 20 megawatt multi-purpose reactor that uses low enriched uranium (LEU) fuel to achieve a range of activities to benefit human health, enable research to support a more sustainable environment and provide innovative solutions for industry.
Nuclear techniques reveal inner structure of iron meteorities non-invasively
Role at ANSTO
Adrian Manis is a Principal Consultant within ANSTO's Minerals area. His role is focused on the scale up of hydrometallurgical processes from batch to continuous testing, from miniature through to demonstration pilot plant scale.
ITRAX scanning on cores from Macquarie Island
Research reveals that strong westerly winds weaken the Southern Ocean’s ability to store carbon and thereby contribute to faster accumulation of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
Hamilton Wearing is the Operations Manager within within ANSTO's minerals area. Hamilton’s role includes oversight of sample management, analytical laboratory support , ensuring regulatory compliance of operations and leading continuous improvement
Reconstructing a history of palaeoclimate in south-eastern Australia
The role of trace elements as palaeoclimate proxies has been explored in ANSTO-led collaborative environmental research.
Nuclear science helps prove earliest Aboriginal occupation
ANSTO researchers contribute to study which finds evidence of Aboriginal occupation 65,000 years ago in Northern Australia.
Synchrotron techniques reveal amount of carbon captured in microscopic seams of deep-sea limestone
A collaboration of Australian scientists has used ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron to measure the amount of carbon that is captured in microscopic seams of deep-sea limestone, which acts as a carbon sink.
Our understanding of the atom powers ANSTO's nuclear and accelerator research techniques
Scientists at ANSTO characterise structures with atomic detail using probes such as x-rays, electrons, neutrons and ions.
Statement of Intent
In January 2026, Mr Michael Quigley AM, ANSTO Board Chair, shared ANSTO's Statement of Intent with the Minister for Industry and Innovation, and Minister for Science.
