Abstract

The Ir, Au and Pd concentrations in three certified reference materials SARM-7, FC-1 and DZΣ-1 were determined by neutron activation analysis using α-amino pyridine preconcentration. Good agreement between the reference values and our results was obtained, and the reliability of our method was confirmed. This method is suitable for ppb or sub-ppb levels of Ir and Au analyses in environmental and geological samples. The Ir and Au levels in a Chinese coastal sediment GBW07314 were also analyzed.
