FIELD: metallurgy. SUBSTANCE: before silver oxide isolation sodium nitrite is added to silver nitrate solution at heating and stirring up to pH 3.0-3.5. Precipitated silver nitrite is separated, washed and treated with sodium hydroxide solution up to pulp pH 11.5-12.5. Prepared silver oxide precipitate is dried and calcined, and metallic silver is obtained. Mother liquid after silver oxide precipitation is used for silver nitrite precipitation. EFFECT: improved method of silver purification. 1 tbl
