Abstract
UPER-1 is a natural uranium ore concentrate powder Certified Reference Material (CRM) prepared at the National Research Council Canada (NRC). A unit of UPER-1 consists of approximately 25 g of natural uranium ore concentrate. This CRM is intended for the calibration of measurement procedures and the development of methods for the determination of uranium content, uranium isotope ratios, and trace elements in uranium ore concentrate or similar matrices.
