Hello
S.S here looking for a recipe for smelting galena silver ore.

I have about 25 Lbs of crush ore and need a way of turning it into bars.

I have made a furnace for smelting out of fire bricks & have some chapmans flux. Do i need to mix copper or zinc to get the impurities out
or none of the two?

I had a mentor for six months but he pasted from cancer and he had a note book with all his recipes on it but it was buried with him.

I am a hard worker and a fast learner.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
S.S.
 

Be careful dont know much but I know it cause deadly fumes! Be safe and good luck.
 

Post this in the Prospecting forum...there's several people
with experience there that could be of help.
