Gold and organic carbon in waters from the Bering Sea and the North Pacific

Atomic absorption spectroscopy is used to determine concentration of gold in waters of the Bering Sea and North Pacific. Distributions of gold and organic carbon in colloidal and "dissolved" fractions separated by ultrafiltration through Vladipor filters are determined. Direct evidence of...

Description
Summary:Atomic absorption spectroscopy is used to determine concentration of gold in waters of the Bering Sea and North Pacific. Distributions of gold and organic carbon in colloidal and "dissolved" fractions separated by ultrafiltration through Vladipor filters are determined. Direct evidence of gold association with colloidal matter of sea water is presented and concentrations of gold in various fractions of colloidal solutions are determined. The most important forms of occurrence of colloidal gold prove to be high molecular weight fractions, and the most important form of colloidal organic carbon (Corg) is low molecular fraction. Dissolved forms are important in the balance of gold and Corg. Variations in forms of occurrence of gold and Corg in vertical profiles are described.
