Тенденции развития методик анализа содержания благородных металлов в минеральном сырье

The article is devoted to the problems related to the assessment of modern methods for the prospecting and exploration of stock of precious metals in the Russian Federation. Proposed for consideration the areas of geology and chemistry, allowing to carry out this research using innovative methods. These methods include inversion voltammetry. The method is characterized by high sensitivity and selectivity, which is accomplished by using the classical methods of degradation, separation and concentration. The most valuable polymetallic raw materials are considered ores of complex deposits. They contain minerals of gold, platinum with palladium mineral impurities, represented by native gold, pure metallic platinum, palladium, rhodium and osmium. Considered a number of issues related to sampling, their research and analysis with the prediction of stocks of gold and platinum group metals.
