  • Department of Pure Chemistry, University College of Science, Calcutta-700 009 Manuscript received 18 February 1981, revised 21 January 1982, accepted 23 May 1982 The separation of the main constituents of pyrolusite and Indian coin paper elec­trophoretically under a potential gradient of 2.2 volts/cm using 0.1 M sodium acetate and 0.1 M sodium formate as carrier electrolyte on Whatman Paper No. 1 (3 cm x 40 cm) shows that iron and manganese from pyrolusite and copper and nickel from cupro-nickel Indian coin can be successfully separated and determined spectrophoto­metrically after eluting from the paper. Advantage of this method over existing methods is that separation is possible in 15 min.
