Co-precipitation of Pu(IV) and Am(III) with potassiunm sulfate was studied using Pu/sup 239/ and Am/sup 241/ isotopes and chemically pure twice recrystallized potassium sulfate. It is shown that Pu(IV) and Am(III) form mixed crystals with potassium sulfate. The lower miscibility lcvel is at Pu(IV) concentration of l0/sup -5/ to l0/sup -9/ M and Am(Ill) concentrations of 10/sup - 7/ to 10/sup -9/ M. A high crystallization factor for Pu(IV) and Am(III) makes potassium sulfate a good carrier for transuranium elements. (R.V.J.)
