Abstract
A new method has been developed for rapid determination of μg/g and ng/g amounts of noble metals in silicate rocks, ores and metallurgical samples by attacking with hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia, preconcentration by ion-exchange chromatography and measuring in a simultaneous multi-element graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer equipped with a polarized Zeeman background correction device which eliminated interferences from any incompletely separated common elements. The method was tested for Ru, Rh, Pt, Ir, Pd, Ag and Au with three Canadian certified reference materials, and then applied to the determination of ng/g amounts of these elements in four new Canadian candidate reference materials.
