Four-Acid or ‘near total’ digestion uses a combination of hydrochloric, nitric, perchloric and hydrofluoric acids. Only the most highly resistant minerals will not be dissolved using this type of digestion. Mercury is volatilized in this type of digestion; however it can be added by using aqua regia digestion at an additional cost.

HYDROGEOCHEMISTRY

Page 12: MS Analytical Brochure 2016-Part 2

HYDROGEOCHEMISTRYSurface and groundwater surveys can be an effective tool in mineral exploration. As water comes in contact with rocks containing ore deposits, minerals may dissolve in the water emulating the chemical composition of the rock. Ultra-trace analysis by ICP-MS provides the sensitivity required when distinguishing between background levels of chemical elements and anomalous mineral levels.

Bulk Leach Extractable Gold (BLEG) – Cyanide Leach

Test uses cyanide to extract gold into solution. These procedures can be applied to geological samples in which fine gold may be present, or in which gold may be heterogeneously distributed. Advanced BLEG tests use multiple sampling periods as well as analysis of the leached solution and the residue to better understand the leachability of the ore.
