Phase Analysis of Pt, Pd and Au in Black Rock-type Platinum Group Element Minerals by ICP-MS
Black rock as an important carrier of platinum group elements was discovered in recent years. Due to the multiple origins and complex mineralization, the distribution and occurrence of platinum group elements in black rock are not clear, which is also ...

An Investigation into the Theft of Concentrates and Their Upgrading to Saleable Platinum-Products
Over the years the theft of material from platinum producers has mainly taken place from high-grade areas such as the precious- and base-metal refineries and the converter and smelting operations.

Multiscale experiments and modeling reveal how Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheets reinforce PVDF nanocomposites. An optimal MXene loading (∼1 wt.%) nearly doubles tensile strength through efficient stress transfer, flake alignment, and crack‐deflection mechanisms, transforming ductile polymer behavior into a controlled multi‐stage fracture pathway which aligns ...

Noble metal mineralization in apatite titanomagnetite ores of the Suroyam massif (Middle Urals)
The mineralogical composition of apatite-titanomagnetite clinopyroxenites of the Suroyam massif, characterized by stable elevated contents of platinum group elements with the leading role of palladium, has been studied.

Diagnostic analysis via the heterojunction validation funnel. The funnel illustrates the hierarchical stratification of 30 reported Type‐II systems based on the three‐phase, seven‐step diagnostic framework. Complete validation through all phases is achieved by only 3.3% of systems, while 96.7% lack full mechanistic validation, revealing a pervasive ...

Platinum-Group Elements in Sulphide Minerals, Platinum-Group Minerals, and Whole-Rocks of the Merensky Reef (Bushveld Complex, South Africa): Implications for the Formation of the Reef [PDF]
The concentrations of platinum-group elements (PGE), Co, Re, Au and Ag have been determined in the base-metal sulphide (BMS) of a section of the Merensky Reef. In addition we performed detailed image analysis of the platinum-group minerals (PGM). The aims of the study were to establish: (1) whether the BMS are the principal host of these elements; (2 ...

COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY OF CRYSTALS OF PLATINUM GROUP MINERALS FROM PLACERS OF THE SOUTH URALS [PDF]
Crystals of platinum group minerals (PGMs) of the Os–Ir–Ru and Pt–Fe systems from placer deposits of the South Urals are zonal and relatively homogenous in composition and can contain inclusions of PGE sulfides, arsenides, sulfarsenides, and antimonides.

POM‐Based Water Splitting Catalyst Under Acid Conditions Driven by Its Assembly on Carbon Nanotubes
A newly‐engineered POM‐based electrocatalyst incorporating non‐innocent counter cations exhibits fast kinetics for either the OER or HER under strongly acidic conditions (1 m H2SO4), depending on whether it is assembled on carbon nanotubes (1@CNT) or physically mixed with them (1/CNT). In water‐splitting tests using a two‐electrode setup, these systems
