Identification: Dissolve 1 g of sample in 5 mL of 1:2 hydrochloric acid, and add an excess of 1 N sodium hydroxide. A red-brown precipitate forms. Boil the mixture, filter to remove the iron, and strongly acidify a portion of the filtrate with hydrochloric acid. Cool, mix with an equal volume of magnesia mixture and treat with a slight excess of 6 N ammonium oxide. An abundant white precipitate forms. This precipitate, after being washed, turns green-yellow when treated with a few drops of silver nitrate.
Assay: Not less than 26.0% and not more than 32.0% of Fe.
Arsenic: Not more than 3 mg/kg.
Fluoride: Not more than 0.005%.
