Gold Smelting & Refining Process

When the cupel is cooled, the surface condition around the Dore metal let us know if the smelting process was performed efficiently. For example, cracks mean an excess of antimony, residual slag is an indication that lack of cleaning, and stains are sign of impurities. Gold-Silver Separation. The initial step is to weight the Dore metal.
