Gold halides are compounds of gold with the halogens.
A ratio of a gold sensitizer to a sulfur or selenium sensitizer is preferably such that the ratio of the number of gold atoms to that of sulfur atoms or selenium atoms forming silver sulfide or silver selenide ranges from 1/2 to 1/200.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, silver halide grains are subjected to reduction sensitization, and further subjected to sulfur sensitization or selenium sensitization in combination with gold sensitization in the presence of a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound capable of forming a complex with silver.

The color of solid gold as well as of the intensely colored, often purple, colloidal solutions that can be made from it is caused by the fact that the plasmon frequency of this element lies in the visible range, which causes red and yellow light to be reflected and blue light to be absorbed.
Gold ore grades may be as little as 0.5 g/1000 kg (0.5 ppm) on average in large easily mined deposits, typical ore grades in open-pit mines are 1 - 5 g/1000 kg (1-5 ppm), ore grades in underground or hard rock mines are usually at least 3 g/1000 kg (3 ppm) on average.
Gold is extracted from alluvium ores by techniques of placer mining and from hard rock ores by initially crushing and grinding the ore and then by one or more of the following techniques; gravity separation, flotation, cyanidation, amalgamation, chlorination, roasting, bioleaching or pressure oxidation (autoclaving).

 Direct-positive silver halide emulsion - Patent 4814263
Specific examples of gold fogging agents are potassium tetrachloroaurate, auric trichloride, potassium aurithiocyanate, etc. It is also possible to employ a mixture of water-soluble gold compound, e.g., auric trichloride and thiocyanates forming complexes with gold and having a solvent action on the silver halide grains, e.g., alkali metal and ammonium thiocyanates.
Fogging of the silver halide grains may be effected by using the reducing agent initially and subsequently using the gold compound.
In the preparation of the direct-positive photographic silver halide emulsion for use in accordance with the present invention gelatin is preferably used as vehicle for the silver halide grains.

Like most organic materials Glacier Gold is flammable, but its ignition temperature is 1585ºF at both 5 psi and 0 psi (which is better than the DuPont R-134a's ignition temperature of 368ºF at 5 psi and 1411ºF at 0 psi).
Glacier Gold is a better conductor of heat and requires less horsepower to compress, which reduces compressor wear and extends compressor life.

The group of chemicals known as halides is composed of the elements fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.
If you are extracting with halides, in particular, chlorine where you have no visual reference as to what is happening, you should have some hydrochloric (muriatic) or sulfuric acid at hand.
If your reaction should start to slow down and you are sure you have an excess of halide in solution you might have to add a little acid in order to liberate the halide from it’s salt form in order to keep sufficient free halide to ensure a good extraction.

 321gold: Silver in the Digital World David Morgan 02/01/02
The silver bears bears point to the fact that silver halide film usage is about to wane significantly and after this is realized a major component of silver usage will no longer exist.
The bulls on the other hand seem to take a view similar to mine and believe that standard silver halide film will coexist with digital and some impact will be felt but it will not be that significant.
However, since it is expected that consumers will begin to order more larger-sized prints, silver usage for manufacturing photographic paper will rise slowly over that period as the total volume of paper rises.
