Providing Reference Materials
Catered to Specific Project Needs
Big news for MEG!
We have upgraded our production quality! All geochemical reference materials produced from 2023 onward will be packaged in 6"x6", sealed and foil lined packets. Gold and silver assay reference materials will be a standard 60 grams. Though we are still small and not fully automated like some of our larger competitors - we are making changes to provide the best quality reference material we can and are still committed to providing materials from deposits around the Western United States. Have questions? Let us know how we can help!
Moment Exploration Geochemistry (MEG) provides quality geochemistry services, products and tools to the global precious metal and environmental industries. MEG is entirely located in the state of Nevada and is one of few mining related businesses that is female owned. With a combined 25 year history of services and experience in the metals industry, MEG offers unparalleled expertise in providing quality Reference Materials (RM) and geochemical analysis. MEG is an independent sample preparation laboratory working closely with several associate laboratories to provide geochemical data for the mining and environmental industries.
Initially established by Shea Clark Smith in 1984, MEG is now highly regarded for sample preparation, quality control, and geochemical interpretation. In 2020 Mr. Smith decided to pursue retirement and had the desire to have the services that MEG, Inc. provided, carried on by the next generation. At that time, Shea trained and handed off the business of creating reference materials to Ajeet Milliard who is now sole owner of MEG, LLC (as well as a geologist, mother, outdoor enthusiast, dog-mom, and traveler). MEG is one of few companies producing geochemical reference material from the United States and stands out from other providers by offering personalized consultation services in addition to product. MEG has the technical expertise to offer customized product for metals exploration and production or environmental needs.
In addition to providing reference materials, MEG can also provide double-blind, QAQC to a drill program. By having QAQC samples inserted at specified intervals by a party outside the assay lab, results of the QAQC program are more robust. Contact us for any questions about a double-blind QAQC service for a development or production drilling program.

MEG production labs has completed the transition from its former home in western Nevada to the eastern side of Nevada. Full scale production has commenced and stay tuned for new inventory to be added soon....in fact, it has already begun! If your project is in need of a custom standard made from locally sourced material, let us know how we can help! Average turn around time for a custom standard is only 5 to 6 months.
