In another method of recovering the gold the charged N N complex-forming poly-Schiffs base is heated to a temperature above about 250 and up to 600 C. The organic CHCH n material is destroyed in this heating process and the gold This material is able to form complexes with metal is recovered in metallic form. As the poly-Schiflfs base ions, particularly those of the first and second subsidiary has a very high capacity of absorbing gold, the amounts groups of the periodic system, and to release them again. of this polymer used are rather small.

gold being very much preferred as shown by the following It was briefly boiled in 50 ml. of boiling water, suctionfiltered again and washed with 20 ml. of hot water. The polycon-densate was dried over diphosphorus pentoxide for 20 hours at room temperature/ 14 mm. Hg. The poly- Schifis base was obtained as a brownish-green finegrained powder. Yield=2.4 g. (86% of the theoretical).
To remove acid-soluble components, the poly-SchifiYs base was stirred for 20 hours at room temperature in 0.1 N hydrochloric acid. The product was then suctionfiltered and successively washed three times with ml. of distilled water, 10 ml. of methanol and 10 ml. of ether and then dried over diphosphorus pentoxide at C./ 14 mm. Hg until its weight was constant.
EXAMPLE 2 1 m1. of a 0.01 molar solution of zinc sulphate, 1 m1. of cadmium acetate, 1 ml. of mercury (II) acetate, 1 ml. of copper acetate and 1 ml. of tetrachloro-gold (III)- acid, were mixed together and made up to 1 litre with distilled water. 1 g. of poly-Schilts base, obtained as in Example 1, was added to this solution which was then shaken for 12 hours at room temperature. The macromolecule was then filtered off, after which the metal contents both of the filtrate and of the macromolecule are determined. Whereas the gold quantitatively combined with the macromolecule, the copper (II)-, cadmium and zinc ions remained quantitatively in the solution. Only about one tenth of the mercury originally introduced also combined. The macromolecule was found to have combined with 1.92 mg. of gold (98%), 0.22 mg. of mercury (11%) and less than 0.002 mg. each of copper, cadmium and zinc.
mg. of gold-containing poly-Schiffs basewere shaken for 12 hours at 20 C. with 300 ml. of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid. of the gold was released to the solution under these conditions.
To remove the remaining gold, the product was shaken for 3 hours with 100 ml. of a 0.01 N sodium cyanide solution.
