Also, the impurities, in gold. More particularly the invention is concerned with particular tellurium are sometimes difficult to remove. the separation and/or purification of what are com 10 monly termed secondary platinum group metals or SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION by-metals, which consist of rhodium, ruthenium, irid It is the object of this invention to provide a process ium and osmium. for the treatment of a by-metal concentrate which will In all processes within applicants's knowledge a pre assist in the removal of troublesome impurities such as cious metal concentrate is initially split into two 15 Te, As, Bi, Ag, and Pb which will remove osmium, and groups, one of which consists basically of platinum, which will reduce the bulk of the by-metals being re palladium and gold, and the other of which comprises fined with a consequent saving of reagents and cost of the by-metals. In one known process the by-metals are equipment. alloyed with lead to separate a substantial amount of In accordance with this invention, there is provided a base metals therefrom initially.

The ruthe gether with lead, arsenic, silver bismuth and tellurium, nium and osmium are then separated from the iridium while less than 10% of the ruthenium and only traces of by treating the sodium peroxide melt with water fol the other PGMs are volatilized. The vapours are scrub lowed by filtration while the iridium is dissolved by 60 bed at 2 with a 10% NaOH solution which precipitates treating the resultant residue with hydrochloric acid. all the metals as hydrous oxides (which settle to the The metals thus separated from one another are then bottom of the receiving vessel) except the ruthenium treated for further purification. The ruthenium and and osmium oxides which are converted to soluble osmium are normally purified by a collective chlorine sodium salts according to the following reactions: distillation, followed by a nitric acid distillation for 65 osmium. The rhodium is treated for the removal of Ruo, + 2NaOH -> Na(RuO) + 'AO + HO OsO. impurities such as palladium, tellurium and other base + 2 NaOH -> Na(OsO(OH)) metals which are also rendered soluble by the KHSO 3,997,337 3 4 The ruthenium is precipitated at 2 from the alkali fusion.

  • Sample Digestion Methods for the Determination of Traces of Precious Metals by Spectrometric Techniques
    ANALYTICAL SCIENCES JULY 2002, VOL. 18 737 2002 © The Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry Reviews Sample Digestion Methods for the Determination of Traces of Precious Metals by Spectrometric Techniques Maria BALCERZAK Department of Analytical Chemistry, Warsaw University of Technology, Noakowskiego 3, 00-664 Warsaw, Poland Recent advances in digestion methods used in the analysis of precious metal samples by spectrometric techniques are reviewed. The applicability of a fire assay, a wet acid treatment, chlorination and alkaline oxidizing fusion to a quantitative recovery of metals from various materials is discussed. Data on the precious metal contents obtained by using particular digestion methods as well as UV-VIS spectrophotometry, atomic absorption spectrometry, atomic emission spectrometry and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry in the examination of various samples are tabulated.

These names have (ICP-AES) or mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), are widely applied roots in the unique physical and chemical properties of the in the analysis of a variety of samples containing noble metals metals, owing to their low abundance and high economic value.
