The fire assay underestimates the gold levels when gold telluride is present. • The fire assay for gold determines only 44% of the gold contained in the ore. • Roasting the sample to 650 °C reduce this underestimation. • For this sample, 56% of the gold is found in cupels and slags.

Fire Assay – one of the oldest and most accurate, yet totally destructive, methods for checking the precious metals purity content, particularly of gold and silver. Certain amounts of gold and silver are placed in a disposable crucible or cupel to check the amount of impure or non-precious metals in the sample.

In order to make this claim, you would have to have done side by side comparisons. I would be thrilled if you could prove just a 2 time increase over fire assay, as that would mean double the amount of reported gold than a fire assay. But claiming 15-20 times more seems utterly outside the realm of what is real.

If you are a jeweller or a metal refiner, 'Assaying' is essential to test the gold. It is an assessment that analyses the purity of gold or any other metal object. From jewellery to bullion bars, assay tests are performed on them to determine their value and purity. There are different ways of assaying the metal. Some of them are as below:

assaying, in chemical analysis, process of determining proportions of metal, particularly precious metal, in ores and metallurgical products. The most important technique, still used today, grew largely out of the experiments of the ancient alchemists and goldsmiths in seeking to find or create precious metals by subjecting base metals and minerals to heat.

One of the simplest preliminary tests for gold at home is the Float Test. All you need is a cup (or bowl) of water and your gold item. All you have to do is place your gold piece into the water! If it's genuine gold, then it will immediately sink to the bottom of the cup. Pure gold is heavy due to its high density (19.32 g/ ml).

It is based on the enlargement of the size of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) directly on the test strip after a conventional LFIA. Particle size enlargement is accomplished through the catalytic reduction of HAuCl 4 in the presence of H 2 O 2 and through the accumulation of additional gold on the surface of the GNPs. To attain maximal enhancement of ...
