An ore's isotope signature is not a permanent barcode. It is reshaped at every industrial step, and reconstructing the origin demands advanced physical and statistical models.
An ore carries an isotope signature characteristic of the deposit from which it was extracted, determined by its geology, its age and its geochemical history. That signature is a genuine geographic fingerprint.
But as soon as the ore enters an industrial chain, it is refined, smelted, alloyed, blended with other batches. Each step introduces an isotope fractionation that shifts the measured signature away from the original one. For some elements that shift reaches several ‰, the equivalent of the difference between two distinct deposits.
Without correcting for industrial fractionation, comparing a final signature against a deposit database leads to attribution errors. This is precisely what IsoSupply solves: modelling the fractionation of each step to walk back to the original signature.

The Quick Match module covers the full range of traceability, fraud detection and industrial flow surveillance. The IsoSupply edition ships the compliance-oriented modes; the generalist IsoFind edition brings them all together.
Compare a sample's signature against a reference deposit database to identify its most likely extraction zone, with a confidence score and a multi-isotope analysis.
Reconstruct the original signature of a finished product by walking back through the known industrial steps (refining, alloying, blending), then compare it against deposit databases.
Identify the proportions of several sources in an industrial blend, up to 4 simultaneous sources, with uncertainty quantification through Monte-Carlo methods.
Statistically detect a signature that is anomalous against a certified reference, with an authenticity score and alerting on significant deviations.
Track signature drift over time to detect an undeclared supplier change, a quality degradation or a progressive substitution.
Identify which type of industrial process affected a sample (refining, alloying, oxidation, remelting) from its characteristic multi-isotope signature.
The methodology combines physical modelling of isotope fractionation, machine learning trained on published geochemical data, and probabilistic matching against reference databases.
Multi-isotope acquisition of the sample (Li, Cr, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, Sr, Cd, Sb, W, Pb as needed), analytical consistency check, computation of propagated uncertainties.
Application of Rayleigh, equilibrium and kinetic models to each known industrial step. Probabilistic inversion to reconstruct the distribution of plausible original signatures.
Comparison of the reconstructed signature against a reference deposit database enriched by machine learning on the scientific literature, with a confidence score and a list of compatible candidates.
The inverse reconstruction of the original signature across an entire industrial chain, rather than a direct comparison against reference databases. That capability is what makes it possible to trace a finished product, and not only a raw ore.
An edition dedicated to compliance, procurement and quality teams. It brings together signature reconstruction after transformation, the compliance-oriented Quick Match modes and the auditable reports the European frameworks require. Everything runs on your machine, and no supplier data ever leaves your infrastructure.
