Synopsis

Master precise ore analysis with proven wet-chemical methods and clear, step-by-step procedures.

This classic text, Technical Methods of Ore Analysis, offers practical techniques for analyzing complex ore samples. It covers a range of methods for separating, precipitating, and quantifying key elements, with careful notes on accuracy and potential interferences. The guidance is presented in accessible language that supports hands-on laboratory work.

The book presents concrete procedures you can apply in a lab setting, from dissolving alloys to preparing reagents and carrying out titrations. You’ll find detailed steps for handling sulfides, mercury, molybdenum, nickel, cobalt, and other elements, along with tables, standard solutions, and checks to ensure reliable results. It emphasizes observation of conditions, clean separation, and thoughtful data interpretation.
  • Step-by-step wet-chemical methods for ore components, including separation, dissolution, and precipitation
  • Guidance on calibrations, standard solutions, and end-point determinations
  • Techniques for avoiding common interferences and validating results
  • Practical examples of gravimetric and volumetric approaches used in ore analysis
Ideal for readers of professional assay work, mineral analysis courses, or any laboratory needing reliable ore-analytic techniques.
