Standard Test Method for Determination of Silver in Copper Concentrates by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry
description
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of silver in the range of 50 g/g to 1000 g/g by acid dissolution of the silver and measurement by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Copper concentrates are internationally traded within the following concentration ranges:
| Element | Unit | Concentration Range | ||
| Aluminum | % | 0.05 | to | 2.50 |
| Antimony | % | 0.0001 | to | 4.50 |
| Arsenic | % | 0.01 | to | 0.50 |
| Barium | % | 0.003 | to | 0.10 |
| Bismuth | % | 0.001 | to | 0.16 |
| Cadmium | % | 0.0005 | to | 0.04 |
| Calcium | % | 0.05 | to | 4.00 |
| Carbon | % | 0.10 | to | 0.90 |
| Chlorine | % | 0.001 | to | 0.006 |
| Chromium | % | 0.0001 | to | 0.10 |
| Cobalt | % | 0.0005 | to | 0.20 |
| Copper | % | 10.0 | to | 44.0 |
| Fluorine | % | 0.001 | to | 0.10 |
| Gold | g/g | 1.40 | to | 100.0 |
| Iron | % | 12.0 | to | 30.0 |
| Lead | % | 0.01 | to | 1.40 |
| Magnesium | % | 0.02 | to | 2.00 |
| Manganese | % | 0.009 | to | 0.10 |
| Mercury | g/g | 0.05 | to | 50.0 |
| Molybdenum | % | 0.002 | to | 0.25 |
| Nickel | % | 0.0001 | to | 0.08 |
| Silicon | % | 0.40 | to | 20.0 |
| Silver | g/g | 18.0 | to | 8000 |
| Sulfur | % | 10.0 | to | 36.0 |
| Tin | % | 0.004 | to | 0.012 |
| Zinc | % | 0.005 | to | 4.30 |
