Southern Gold Coast Laboratories testing facility

Our own lab. NATA-accredited. Built for this industry.

Southern Gold Coast Laboratories is a Currumbin Minerals subsidiary — an independent, NATA-accredited laboratory servicing the mineral sands and critical minerals industry across Australia.

About SGCL

Established 2021, on the same Currumbin site

We set up Southern Gold Coast Laboratories in 2021 to bring independent testing capability in-house — and to offer it to the wider industry. It's NATA-accredited (site 25547), giving customers confidence in every result, whether it's for quality control, research and development, or process optimisation.
