Since ancient times, fire assaying has been used to determine precious metals. It has proven reliable. Fire assaying is mentioned in the Bible's old testament and in artifacts found in ruins of past civilizations. In the 12th century, assaying was first mentioned in English and French literature. It then spread quickly to other parts of Europe. You can fire assay ores, metal solutions, or any other material thought to contain gold and/or silver. It is based on scientific methodology, and it is a branch both of inorganic and analytical chemistry.
FIRE ASSOY EQUIPMENT This combination is used to melt the fluxing agents as well as to separate the precious metals. There are a few facts that will determine whether a substance can be fired assay. First, samples containing gold or silver must be solubilized in the molten metal lead. Second, gold and silver cannot dissolve in slag. The difference in specific gravity of the liquids (molten lead and slag) is also important for fire assay. This difference in specific gravity is what separates the precious metal-bearing and slag alloys. You can isolate the precious metals by carefully controlling the oxidizing fusion in a porous container known as a cupel. Fire assay is possible due to the solubility and insolubility of silver and gold in nitric acids. To produce reproducible results, one must be proficient in fire assay. To ensure accurate results, one must assay pulp standards.
These results are calculated using a standard measurement unit. Fire assaying deals with small amounts in large samples of gold. Therefore, one uses an Assay Ton for fire assay. 29.166 grams is the assay ton. The assay-ton system calculates the number of Troy Ounces per Short Ton. Standard units are either grams/ton, or oz/ton. It is important to be familiar with the units and their conversions.
