I was looking for an answer to the following question. If there is an answer in the archive, sorry that I did not find it.
The Question ist: If I have a solution with gold- , iron and copper-ions as a result of using AR and now I want to precipitate the gold from the solution with SMB, will this also precipitate the copper ? ? ?
My Idea (better: my hope): The copper an the iron will further be in solution and only gold will precipitate with the SMB, right? Than I only have to wash the gold-powder as the following step?
Thank you!
