Abstract:By using HCl-HNO3-HF-HClO4, HCl-HNO3-HF-H2SO4 under the open conditon, HCl-HNO3-HF-HClO4 under the closed condtion, and HNO3-HF under closed and resoluted condtion to dissolve the ores, using inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), the method which will measure potassium, sodium, calcium, aluminum, iron, titanium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, chromium, vanadium, strontium, zinc and other elements in the ultrabasic rocks at the same time has been established. The best instrument conditions and analytical spectral lines for measurements by using inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer have been selected, and the influence of the magnesium substrate has been studied as well. Adding right amount of magnesium to standard solution as the matrix matching can eliminate the matrix effect. As showed by the experimental results: the method of using HNO3-HF to dissolve ores under closed condtion has many advantages, such as low detection limit, high sensitivity, simple operation and rapid. By using this method, the measured value can fit the recommended value basically, and the precision of the method can satisfy demand of "Test Quality Management Standard of Geology and Mineral Resources Laboratory ".
