Abstract
Methods were developed for the determination of gallium and indium in complex ores by electrothermal-atomization atomic absorption Spectrometry using matrix modifications. Nickel and nickel-ammonium sulfate as matrix modifier has enhanced the absorption signals for gallium and indium, respectively, eliminating the matrix interferences to allow their solutions in nitric acid to be used as calibration standards. No matrix separations are necessary. Results are quoted for a variety of black ore samples (Kuroko). The RSDs are 7.0% for gallium and 5.3% for indium at their 10 μg/g levels, and the inverse sensitivities are 20 pg of gallium and 38 pg of indium for respective 1% absorption.
