Abstract:

The objective of this work was to devise a technique capable of determining trace impurities in quartz at the parts per million range. The technique selected was atomic absorption and a procedure was devised for determining lithium, sodium, potassium, iron, aluminum and carbon. Over 150 quartz samples were analyzed using this technique. Author
