Abstract
An efficient procedure for sample preparation and determination of rare earth elements (REE) in the brown coals of the Azeysk by a highly sensitive method, mass spectrometry with inductively coupled argon plasma, has been developed. The relative standard deviations in REE determination by the semi-quantitative and quantitative methods do not exceed 15 and 8 wt%, respectively. The total content of rare earth elements is 0.92 ± 0.07 kg/t of coal, which was verified by an independent spectrophotometric method with аrsenazo III.
