Abstract: In order to separate thorium from the high-content rare earth and determine thorium in rare earth products， the authors studied the impact of tartaric acid， triethanolamine at different dosage， designed the routing of extraction and enrichment with macroporous resin 743 as separation materials， and thorium contents was determined by arsenazo III colorimetric method. In this method， the sample was digested with alkaline solution， extracted with aqueous triethanolamine. After it was filtered， the precipitate was dissolved with 4 mol/L hydrochloric acid. In the presence of tartaric acid， the impurities of resin was eluted with 4 mol/L hydrochloric acid， and the resin was converted to ammonium resin with 20% ammonium chloride solution， then thorium was eluted with 4% ammonium oxalate solution. In 4 mol/L hydrochloric acid， the extract was reacted with arsenazo III， and measured at the wavelength of 660 nm. This method is easy in operation， simple in the requirement of equipments， and the measurement results is stable， precise and accurate.
Key words: rare earth product； thorium； 743 macroporous resin； arsenazo III； separation and enrichment
