1. INTRODUCTION The Bushveld Complex in South Africa is a layered igneous intrusion that contains the world's largest known deposit of platinum group metals, as well as significant deposits of vanadium and chrome [1]. It spans about 350 km from east to west and is mined from surface down to about 2300 m. The platinum group metals are concentrated in two planar orebodies, the Merensky and the UG...

Platinum group metals (PGM) are widely used in catalytic industry due to their outstanding physical and chemical properties (high-temperature stability, high catalyst activity, heat resistance, corrosion resistances). They medical fields, electronics, oil refining, production of ammonia, fuel cells, automotive industry. Catalytic wastes an important secondary source because recycling is more ec...
