In present work, low content gold in copper ores was determined by using enrichment
method. Complexing polymer sorbent (polystyrene-azo-thiazandithion-2,4) was used
to increase the gold content for analysis of waste copper, copper ore and copper
concentrate to upgrade the methodology. The optimum conditions of the volume
capacity, pH, temperature, and time dependence enrichment of gold content were
examined to increase analysis efficiency by using treatment of complexing polymer
sorbent. The chemical interactions and molecular structure of PSTDT with gold were
successfully determined using by FT-IR and theoretical calculations.
