The Role of Te, As, Bi, and Sb in the Noble Metals (Pt, Pd, Au, Ag) and Microphases during Crystallization of a Cu-Fe-S Melt

Quasi-equilibrium directional crystallization was performed on a melt composition (at. %): 18.50 Cu, 32.50 Fe, 48.73 S, 0.03 Pt, Pd, Ag, Au, Te, As, Bi, Sb, and Sn, which closely resembles the Cu-rich massive ores found in the platinum-copper-nickel deposits of Norilsk. Base metal sulfides (BMS) suc...
