Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The possibility of atomic absorption determination of mercury in solid samples of placer gold is shown. Mercury-gold compounds with a variable composition are assumed to be found in the process of thermal atomization. The conditions that contribute to an increase in the degree of atomization of mercury in the process of heating of a solid sample in the range of concentrations above 10−7 wt % are selected.
