After the lead foil packets are prepared, place them inthe assay furnace on cupels which have been preheated to900 C for 20 min w

33、ith the draft slightly open. The furnacetemperature is correct if the dark crust which forms over themelted lead packet disappears within a few minutes. A typicaltemperature to produce such reasonably rapid “opening up” ofthe samples is 900 C.12.2.3 After the lead packets have opened up adjust theai

34、rflow through the furnace. The temperature must be main-tained high enough to prevent the button from freezing (thesolidification of molten litharge on the button surface).12.2.4 Keep the cupels in the furnace until all traces of leadhave disappeared. This time depends on the amount of leadused, the

35、 furnace temperature, and the airflow (Note 1).Remove the cupels and slowly cool them to room temperatureeither by placing cupels at the entrance of the furnace with thedoor open or by placing a warmed metal spatula on top of thecupels.NOTE 1Occasionally at the end of the cupellation process, the be

Remo

Pass the beads through a rolling mill to form anelongated strip about 10 cm long and 0.015 cm to 0.03 cm inthickness, maintaining a uniform thickness throughout thebatch of samples. Reanneal the strips and then roll

If the coronet breaksapart, care must be taken not to lose any gold pieces.NOTE 2Parting baskets should not be used when determining theapproximate gold content of multiple samples. I
