“…On the basis of these observations, as well as the fact that from methanolhydrobromic acid solution only gallium and a few other elements are adsorbed on the resin, a method for the determination of gallium in bauxite samples was developed. This cannot be carried out using the separation principle earlier described by Korkisch and Kazan (4) employing acetone-and 2-methoxy-1-ethanol-hydrochloric acid media for the sequential separation of gallium, indium, and aluminum, because under these conditions the iron behaves exactly like gallium.…”
