This part of ISO 11648 establishes the basic methods for sampling particulate materials in bulk (e.g. ores, mineral concentrates, coal, industrial chemicals in powder or granular form, and agricultural products such as grain) from moving streams and stationary situations, including stopped-belt sampling, to provide samples for measuring one or more variables in an unbiased manner and with a known degree of precision. The variables are measured by chemical analysis and/or physical testing. These sampling methods are applicable to materials that require inspection to verify compliance with product specifications or contract settlements, to calculate the value
