AI Overview
A 9 Fire Assay Cupel is a specialized, porous crucible, often made of magnesium oxide or bone ash, used to separate precious metals (gold/silver) from base metals (like lead) during fire assaying. These cupels absorb base metal oxides while retaining the molten, noble metal bead (prill) at high temperatures, typically 1650-1700°F.
