Anion-exchange separation and spectrophotometric determination of thorium in geological samples

Journal Article · · Talanta, v. 20, no. 11, pp. 1199-1205
BS>To determine thorium in geological samples it is first separated from all matrix elements by means of anion-exchange. After elution thorium is determined spectrophotometrically by using thoronol or arsenazo III The suitability of the method for the determination of both trace and larger amounts of thorium was tested by analyzing numerous geochemical standard samples with thorium contents in the range of 1 to 1000 ppM. In all cases very good agreement was obtained. (auth)
