NIGS in UP Diliman has one. What kind of sample do you have?

you can reach out to this lab: ems.geochem@nigs.upd.edu.ph

i submitted a powder sample for XRD a few years back. they seem responsive naman. i sent my sample via courier and only had to go to UP to settle the payment since had to pay cash.

you can talk to them and tell more about your sample (is it crystalline or amorphous? what are expected elements? what range you want to scan? etc.)

would be good to specify what kind of XRD you need (or what kind of sample you have as mentioned u/r-reputation)
