The Investigation Of Different Variables In The Assaying Of Silver Cyanide Solution, Warren M. Mahan
Bachelors Theses and Reports, 1928 - 1970
The assaying of gold and silver cyanide solutions is by no means new. The first method of analysis which is given in the literature is an evaporation method by S. B. Christy in 1896. However, the fire assaying of gold and silver dates further back than this. There is a method of fire assaying for gold and silver given in literature as early as 1556 in Georgius, Agricola’s De Re Metallica book.
