Abstract

A sensitive spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of gold in copper, silver, lead, blister copper, copper concentrate and anode slime. Optimal conditions have been established for the extraction and determination of gold. Gold is extracted as its bromo complex with tri-n-octylamine and determined photometrically with 4,4′-bis(dimethylamino)thiobenzophenone; the absorbance of the organic phase is measured at 540 nm and the apparent molar absorptivity is about 1.2 × 10 5 1.mole −1. cm −1. As little as 0.1 or 0.2 ppm of gold in these materials can be determined.
