A detailed method of separation of a mixture of Zr(IV), Cu(II), Mo(VI), Ti(IV), V(IV), and Mg(II) on Dowex cation and anion exchange resins using hydrochloric acid elution is reported. The titanium, vanadium, and magnesium were not retained by the anion exchange resin, but the zirconium, copper, and molybdenum, which form the anionic chloro complexes, were. After the titanium, vanadium, and magnesium were washed from the anion exchange column with 9M hydrochloric acid, the mixture was made 11M in acid and passed through the same column. The titanium was retained while the other two passed through. The vanadium and magnesium were then separated on the cation exchange column. The zirconium, copper, and molybdenum were successively eluted from the anion exchange column by selecting the proper concentration of eluting acid. Elution curves were prepared for zirconium, copper, molybdenum, magnesium, and vanadium. (auth)
