A method for measuring at least one property of a sample includes obtaining a sample of fluid including at least fines from a downhole environment, exposing the sample to a magnetic field, measuring a magnetic susceptibility of the fines in the sample in response to the magnetic field, and identifying at least one mineral present in the fines based at least partially on the magnetic susceptibility.

Systems and methods for determining the mineralogy of drill solids

Tools and methods are used to determine the oil, water, and solids volume fractions in a drilling fluid at the rig site. The volume fractions can be determined in-line with returned drilling fluid by using an NMR magnet and a flow line or sample chamber that receives a fluid sample and loads it into the NMR magnet. Using an RF probe, spectrometer, and computing device, data processing and interpretation of NMR data from the spectrometer is performed, while also raising a flag when iron contamination exceeds a predefined threshold.
