Optimal conditions and metrological characteristics were determined for an instrumental neutron-activation method for the determination of silver in geological samples with a californium neutron source with a yield of 3.5 x 10/sup 9/ neutrons/sec. Detection limits of 10 and 21 g/ton were achieved in the determination of silver according to the radionuclides /sup 110m/Ag and /sup 110/Ag (P = 0.95), respectively, and it was shown that the detection limits can be lowered to 6-10 g/ton.
