Bryan Bandli, Ph.D. is a mineralogist and microscopist with over a decade of practical experience performing microanalytical investigations of a wide variety of materials. He has worked extensively on the characterization of asbestos. He has employed various automated scanning electron microscopy (SEM) systems with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) techniques to characterize bulk materials and particulate for mining, geology, and stack emission testing projects. Dr. Bandli has successfully applied electron backscatter detection (EBSD) to the identification of asbestos minerals and zeolites.

Dr. Brandli is an experienced instructor of courses on mineralogy and microscopy to graduate and undergraduate students. Prior to joining RJ Lee Group, Dr. Bandli managed an analytical laboratory at the University of Minnesota, Duluth, where he was involved in numerous high-level research projects on a wide range of subjects including geology, biology, ecology, medicine, engineering, and failure analysis.

Extensive experience in the application of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) techniques to characterize minerals, materials and particulates related to mining and processing industries.
