Title: Use of X-Ray Fluorescence in a Laboratory for the Treatment of Uranium Ores; UTILISATION DE LA FLUORESCENCE DANS UN LABORATOIRE DE TRAITEMENTS DE MINERAIS D'URANIUM

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4130734

A brief description is given of some aspects of the experience gained over a year during which x-ray fluorescence was used at the laberatory of the present Section Autonome d'Etudes, Recherches et Applications Chimiques of the Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique. A standard is tested daily to ensure reproducibility. The observations made during the months from Dec. 1958 to May 1959 are described. In acid leaching of uranium ores, the residues are analyzed by x-ray fluorescence directly in powder form. Fixation and elution of vanadium on ion-exchange resin were also studied. (auth)
