Abstract

Specifies a method for determining the mass of contained metal in a lot, based on the wet mass, moisture content and dry basis metal content of the lot. This Standard is identical with and has been reproduced from ISO 13543:1996.

Scope

This International Standard specifies the method for determining the mass of contained metal in a lot, based on the wet mass, moisture content and dry basis metal content of the lot. The procedure for estimating the variance and confidence intervals for the mass of contained metal is also specified.
