Hello!

Anyone know how i can get the right "gold grade" in a gold ore associated with tellurides? something like modified fire assay or a wet digestion process..

Thanks!
 
There is a mention of the use of 12% Nitric Solution to break down Telluride's in a reply by Deano in one of the threads. Then the use of AR to put the metals into solution so they respond to normal analytical methods.
It is my understanding that a standard lead assay will lead to losses by volatisation with Telluride minerals so chemistry is a better option.
I hope this helps

Cheers Wal
