Fire Assay

Most samples will follow one of two analytical processes: wet geochemistry for a broad spectrum of elements, or fire assay for precious metals, both of which are described here. Lead Flux Mixture: Combines pulps with a lead flux mixture and fuse at ~1150 C to break down the chemical bonds within the sample, collecting the precious metals and ...

An essay on 5,000 years of fire assaying

 — Compared to a 10- to 50- gram sample size for fire assay that can take weeks to analyze, PhotonAssay units can analyze sample sizes ranging from 250 to 650 grams in minutes. With much larger sample sizes, it provides a more accurate analysis of high-grade gold systems where assay results can be skewed by the nugget effect – depending on ...

 — The samples are then carried through classical fire-assay separations in the presence of 20-50 mg of gold carrier, and the 2.7-day Au having a photopeak at 0.413 MeV is counted in a gamma-ray spectrophotometer. The fire-assay technique provides for the radiochemical separation of gold with a minimum of operator attention.
