Inquarts are used to add a small, known amount (weight) of silver to each assay. This gives the necessary amount of silver to promote parting, and also increases the size of the button to aid in handling.


Aluminized Rayon Gloves provide excellent radiant heat protection. Carbon Kevlar Backed Gloves give you added protection from molten metal splash for the back of the hand.

Litharge

GOLD & SILVER FREE Assay Litharge - Lead Oxide (PbO)
A Reddish / Orange Powder Assay Litharge that is C.P. grade (Chemically Pure). This material is used for fire assaying processes for the quantitative determination of precious metals in an ore. It is the purest form of litharge, and is milled to a fine and uniform particle size for enhanced reactivity and consistency of reaction. (see Specifications......)

GOLD FREE Assay Litharge - Lead Oxide (PbO)
A yellow / orange Granular Assay Litharge that is C.P. grade (Chemically Pure). This material is used for fire assaying processes for the quantitative determination of precious metals in an ore. It is the purest form of litharge, particularly low in silver, and is milled to a fine and uniform particle size for enhanced reactivity and consistency of reaction. (see Specifications......)

Bismuth Oxide - Fire Assay Grade More and more assay laboratories are using flux made with Bismuth Oxide rather than lead oxide (litharge). There are a variety of reasons to do this. Bismuth is more environmentally friendly, so disposal and recycling are easier. Bismuth is also has less exposure risk. We always recommend wearing proper respirator protection as bismuth flux contains silica, but blood-lead monitoring is not needed and the medical surveillance is less rigorous.
