Abstract
Chemical speciation of platinum metals and some other siderophile elements in Precambrian/Cambrian black shale, south China, were studied using stepwise dissolution, fire assay preconcentration, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and instrumental neutron activation analysis. The results indicate that platinum metals in Precambrian/Cambrian black shale, south China, are enriched through a syngenetical mineralizing process.
