VPRS 7041 Register of Payments for Assays

The registers in this series record the payment charged for the production of assay reports, as located in the related series VPRS 19143 Assay Reports. The registers record the assay report number, address and/or name of the person who sent the sample, amount charged and date. This information may be cross-referenced with the equivalent assay report number in the reports for the same year. Some entries list a second number along with the date, which appears to be a receipt number for payment made. Not every assay report is listed in the registers, with apparent gaps in the numbering sequence. Assay sample testing was the responsibility of the Geological Survey of Victoria (VA 4118) and was undertaken by different public bodies over time. Reports for this series were completed by the State Laboratories.本系列登记册记录了相关档案系列VPRS 19143《化验报告》中所载化验报告的制作收费情况。登记册所收录的信息包括化验报告编号、送检样本者的地址及/或姓名、收费金额与日期。上述信息可与同年度报告中对应的化验报告编号进行交叉检索。部分条目会在标注日期的同时附带另一编号，该编号大概率为已缴付款项的收据编号。并非所有化验报告均会被录入本登记册，编号序列中存在明显的空缺。化验样本检测工作原由维多利亚州地质调查局（VA 4118）负责，后续由不同公共机构先后承接。本系列报告由州立实验室编制完成。
