Analysis of Base Metal Sulfides using XRF and Fusion
Sulfide ores are important sources for several elements such as Cu, Zn, Pb, Ni, Co, Mo, Bi, Sb, Cd, Ag, Au, Se, Te. To obtain maximum yields from a deposit, it is crucial to know the concentrations of the valuable elements in ores and concentrates at various stages of the mining process. In this application note, discover how these can be analyzed using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and fusion.
