Assay Laboratory
These laboratory modules are specially designed for mining operations that require their fire assay labs to be portable. Designed for fire assay and other common analytical techniques for analysis of ore samples and environmental testing. They have limitless potential for expansion and can meet all project requirements.
This 7.6 m long module houses three Mines Assay GLO-BAR Electric furnaces, two for fusion and the other for cupellation. Access to the rear of the furnaces is through removable wall panels, behind each furnace. This allows placing the furnaces within 25.4 cm of the wall, creating the maximum work area.
A single pouring and slagging hood, situated between the two fusion furnaces, includes a unique crucible drain rack that swings to the rear of the hood to maximize working space. A discharge hopper in the bottom of the hood provides a ventilated collection area for slag and other lead-bearing waste material. A perforated floor area in front of the furnaces provides fresh make up air that can be heated or cooled as required. The cupellation furnace has a specially designed fume capture hood with shelf space for three sets of 24 cupels. Two technicians can comfortably work in the fire assay module, which has a production capacity of 350 samples daily.
