ادامه مطلبAs of 31 December 2019, 100% of Australia's Ore Reserves of antimony are attributable to the Costerfield mine in Victoria (Table 2). Costerfield produces antimony as a by-product to gold and is Australia's only antimony producer. Ore Reserves were down 73% from 2018 levels owing to reclassification of the Hillgrove deposit in New South Wales.
ادامه مطلبProcedures for gold determination must take into account: • Sample type, • Sample concentration, • Purpose of the analysis, • Sample mineralogy and form of the gold (if known). Lead collection fire assay is considered the most definitive technique while acid digests and accelerated cyanide leaches can be effective for specific purposes.
