Melting and or Smelting with Chapman Flux basic


instructions
Melting down Gold Jewelry;
Chapman Flux can be used to clean up your Jewelry and pull out
embellishments. This will not refine it but will give you a better product than
just melting. In this situation you should add Part Flux to 1 part Jewelry by
volume. In other more simple words if you have 1 shot glass full of jewelry then
add of a shot glass of flux. The melt everything down and keep melted for
10-20 min then pour everything into a mold at one time. Let cool the bust off
the slag/glass and if you want to now make better looking bars then melt down
the Gold with no flux and pour into bars. We offer over 200 different sizes and
shapes of molds from 1 Gram to 1000 oz. Best results are with the use of High
Density Graphite Molds. Used properly can last for hundreds of pours. We also
sell many symbols, Numbers and letters of all sizes to stamp your bars. You
should always stamp the weight and purity of your bar on it.

Smelting Gold from Black Sands;


Chapman Flux was designed to do just this very action. How much Flux to mix
in with your black sands is as follows.

60% to 90% Gold needs 1 part flux to 1 part black sands & Gold. In other more
simple words if you have 1 shot glass full of Black Sands then add 1 shot glass
full of flux.

40% to 60% Gold needs 1-1/2 part flux to 1 part black sands & Gold. In other
more simple words if you have 1 shot glass full of Black Sands then add 1-1/2
shot glasses full of flux.

1% to 39% Gold needs 2 part flux to 1 part black sands & Gold. In other more
simple words if you have 1 shot glass full of Black Sands then add 2 shot
glasses full of flux.

Once you have your Black sands, Gold and Flux mixed together put into a
crucible and heat up to 2100 Degrees Fahrenheit and keep the Temp at 2100F
for 1 hour. This is to allow all the microscopic gold & other Precious metals to
collect together. Then pour all of your melted material out into a mold at one
time. The Gold Bar or bead will drop to the bottom of the pour. Allow the pour
to cool, you will hear cracking like glass shattering. Once cool you can then
bust off the slag. If you small amounts of gold it will be a bead towards the
bottom of the pour. If you have a larger amount then the Gold will be a bar at
the bottom and the slag/Flux will be on top.

NOTE* It must pour like water!! If not you will need to add Chapman Flux
Thinner (Flux thinner is Lime & Flourspar mixed 50/50 by weight) If your
results have specs of gold in the slag it could be that 1. You didnt keep the
temp up to 2100F. 2. You took it out early and not the full 1 Hour. Or 3. Your
material needs flux thinner because it poured out thicker than water.

Feel free to call us with any questions, there are no dumb questions. (Note, if
you use more than listed it will not hurt anything at all except your pocket
book)
