Abstract: The invention provides a novel method of treating a mineral sample comprising the steps of: introducing a comminuted mineral sample together with a flux into a reaction vessel, the flux including a collector agent adapted during fusion to collect a constituent of the mineral sample; causing the flux and mineral sample to fuse to form a molten slag and molten collector agent; preheating a separation vessel; introducing the molten slag and molten collector agent into the preheated separation vessel; and separating the molten slag from the molten collector agent.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of assaying a mineral sample for determining the concentration of selected metals in a sample comprising the steps of providing a comminuted mineral sample; mixing such sample with a flux; preheating a reaction vessel to a temperature which approximates the melting point of the flux; introducing the mixture of the mineral sample and flux into the crucible, whereby the mixture is transformed to a molten state to capture the metal to be assayed in a collector material; and separating slag from the collector material.
