Technical Methods of Ore Analysis for Chemists and Colleges (Hardcover)

Hardcover. "Technical Methods of Ore Analysis for Chemists and Colleges" is a comprehensive and authoritative manual dedicated to the quantitative chemical examination of mineral samples. Written by Albert H. Low, this classic text provides detailed, step-by-step laboratory procedures for identifying and measuring the various elements found in ores. The work was specifically developed to serve as a reliable bridge between theoretical chemistry and the practical demands of the mining and metallurgical industries, making it a foundational resource for both professional chemists and students of engineering.The book covers a vast range of substances, including base metals like copper, lead, and zinc, as well as precious metals and more complex mineral compounds. Low emphasizes the importance of precision and speed, offering refined analytical techniques that address common chemical interferences encountered in industrial settings. From titration and precipitation to electrolytic methods, the instructions reflect the rigorous technical standards of early 20th-century mineralogy. This work remains a significant historical reference for the evolution of analytical chemistry and provides invaluable insight into the traditional methodologies that shaped modern mineral processing and metallurgical testing.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
