摘要
A rapid and accurate method for the determination of bismuth in rock samples is described. Automated equipment is used to generate bismuth hydride from solutions of rock samples prepared by digestion with a mixture of hydrofluoric and perchloric acids. The evolved hydride is carried to a heated quartz tube by a stream of argon, and the atomic absorption of bismuth recorded. Thiosemicarbazide and 1,10-phenanthroline are used as masking agents to minimize interferences from copper and nickel. As little as 20 ng Bi g-1 can be determined; the average r.s.d. is 5.4%. Results obtained for six USGS standard rocks are in close agreement with the recommended values obtained by an isotope dilution technique. © 1979.
