In Practice two samples have to be proceeded separately to determine both lead and silica in lead process samples like concentrates, coarse sinter etc. In the present recommended procedure, the lead and silica are precipitated together by using   acid fuming, but, instead of using ammonium acetate treatment to separate lead and silica, a mixture of hydrochloric acid-sodium chloride is used to achieve the same purpose. This helps in determine all the components of lead process samples from the same solution without loss of accuracy in any of the components. This method saves considerable time and especially useful for routine analysis in process control lab.
