More details: Publisher Summary Most of the lead?��zinc ore contains silver and to a lesser degree, gold. Almost 85\% of the silver production in the world comes from lead?��zinc ores. Silver recovery in a large number of ores, specifically from South America, is emphasized, and some of these circuits were in fact designed to provide the highest possible silver recovery. The reagent scheme used in the treatment of lead?��zinc ores varies considerably and depends on the nature and mineralogy of the ore. In most cases, NaCN?��ZnSO4 depressant system is used with xanthate + dithiophosphate collectors. These reagent schemes are normally employed for treatment of carbonatite and coarse-grained massive sulfides. However, for treatment of disseminated massive sulfide ores, a much more complex reagent scheme is used. The type of reagent schemes also varies by regions, where the application of new technology (i.e., new collectors and depressants) in some regions is very slow and the operating plants rely on the old conventional processes and technology. As for copper?��zinc ores, some of the lead?��zinc ores are treated using bulk flotation followed by lead?��zinc separation.

More details: Abstract Molecular absorption spectrometry (MAS), originally developed in the 1970s, is a technique to determine non-metals in flames and graphite furnaces by monitoring the absorbance of diatomic molecules. Early studies employed low resolution instruments designed for line source atomic absorption, which provided a limited choice of analytical wavelengths, insufficient spectral resolution, and spectral interferences. However, the development of high-resolution continuum source atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS AAS) instrumentation has allowed the analysis of challenging samples for non-metals as well as some difficult elements to determine by AAS, such as aluminum and phosphorus. In this review, theory and analytical considerations for \{MAS\} are discussed. The principles and limitations of low resolution \{MAS\} are described, along with its applications. HR-CS \{AAS\} instrumentation is reviewed, emphasizing performance characteristics most relevant for MAS. Applications of flame and HR-CS \{GFMAS\} are reviewed, highlighting the most significant work to date. The paper concludes with an evaluation of the enhanced analytical capabilities provided by HR-CS MAS.

More details: The paper illustrates thermal oxidation of InS and GaS. Both thermodynamic calculations and experimental results suggest the formation of a monophase oxide layer. Such oxidation processes are not typical for the other compounds in the III?��VI system, where the native oxide film is another chalcogen compound with a formula like ( A 2 \{III\} B 3 \{VI\} ) enriched.

More details: The optical and electrical properties of the new [In16]Oh[In5.33-xNa3x?��2.66- 2x]TdS32 (BINS) thin films have been studied. The determination of the optical band gap of films containing different rates of sodium has shown that it linearly increases from 2.10 eV, when the films are pure $\beta$-In2S3, to 2.95 eV, when their sodium content corresponds to x .9 i.e. [In16]Oh[In4.4Na2.7?��0.9]TdS32 compound. This evolution of the band gap has been discussed in terms of In-S bond length and electronegativity of Na and In elements. All the BINS thin films have an n-type electrical conductivity, which decreases from 4 ?� 10-7 to 10-7 S cm-1 when x increases from 0.05 to 0.9, respectively. The electrical conductivity of pure $\beta$-In2S3 has been found around 2 ?� 10-8 S cm-1, which is lower than that of films containing sodium. The variation of the room conductivity of the films is related to the sodium distribution in the crystalline structure. ?? 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.A1. Electrical properties,A1.
