abstract = {Determination of chemical composition of siderite (Fe; Me)CO3 (where Me = Mg; Ca; Mn) present in siderite concretion is developed. An accurate and precise determination of Mg, Ca, Mn and Fe in siderite required complete separation of this mineral from other materials, e.g. calcite, quartz. For this purpose, selective dissolution in acetic acid (HAc) was applied. HAc concentration from 0.1 to 1 mol L-1 and extraction time from 0.5 to 8 h were investigated. In each step of investigation of selective dissolution, the X-ray diffraction measurements (XRD) of the residues was performed and also calcium (complexometric titration) and iron (XRF) in solution were determined. HAc of concentration 0.25 mol L-1 and extraction time of 2 h was adopted for siderite separation because in these conditions the siderite was not dissolved and, simultaneously, calcite was completely dissolved. In the next step, the nondissolved sample was digested in hydrochloric acid. The solution of the separated siderite was pipetted onto membrane filter and Mg, Ca, Mn and Fe were determined by wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) spectrometry.
