Scope

GB/T 7739.15-2025 is the English-translated version of 金精矿化学分析方法 第15部分:铂族元素量的测定.

GB/T 7739.15-2025 is the Chinese standard "Methods for chemical analysis of gold concentrates - Part 15: Determination of platinum group element contents". Its scope clause reads: This document describes the methods for determining the amounts of platinum group elements platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, and ruthenium in gold concentrate.

This document applies to the determination of platinum group elements (platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, and ruthenium) in gold concentrate. Method 1.Lead-based gold enrichment - inductively coupled plasma atomic absorption spectrometry (ICP-AES).

Mass spectrometry determination range. Platinum 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00 ng/g, Palladium 15.00 ng/g ~ 22000.00 ng/g; Method 2.Nickel matte assay Enrichment-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) determination range.

Platinum 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00 ng/g, Palladium 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00 ng/g, Rhodium 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00 ng/g, Iridium 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00 ng/g, Ruthenium 10.00 ng/g ~ 10000.00ng/g. Its clauses include terms and definitions.

GB/T 17433 Basic Terminology for Chemical Analysis of Metallurgical Products

3 Terms and Definitions

The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 17433 apply to this document.

4 Method 1.Lead-gold enrichment-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry

4.1 Principle

The sample was batched and melted to obtain lead buttons containing precious metals of appropriate quality and brittle slag. After ash blowing, the lead buttons formed a precious metal alloy.

After digestion with nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, the intensities of platinum and palladium were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry in a mixed acid medium.

The values were calculated using the standard curve method to determine the platinum and palladium content.

4.2 Reagents or Materials

Unless otherwise specified, only reagents confirmed to be of analytical grade and double-distilled or deionized water or water of equivalent purity shall be used in the experiment.
