Testing as per the AEISG Code of Practice
Figure 10 – Sample 5097-RG-006 mixed with ammonium nitrate and acidic weathering agent and tested a pH of 4 before being placed in the reaction tube.
Figure 11 - Sample 5097-RG-006 mixture just placed in oil bath at 55°C.
Figure 12 - Sample 5097-RG-006 mixture had a pH of 7 after AEISG test due to carbonates.
