After another day and night take it out again, mix a little red copper with it, melt as before, and put it back into the furnace.

Laser sintering of gold is a jewellery manufacturing technique [1] first developed by Towe Norlén and Lena Thorsson. [2] Laser sintering [3] of gold starts with gold powder, fine as flour. A laser beam sinters (melts) the gold flour locally in an extremely small point, and any shape may be ‘drawn’ precisely with the laser beam, in three ...
16th century cupellation furnaces (per Agricola). Cupellation is a refining process in metallurgy in which ores or alloyed metals are treated under very high temperatures and subjected to controlled operations to separate noble metals, like gold and silver, from base metals, like lead, copper, zinc, arsenic, antimony, or bismuth, present in the ore.

To extract the metal, workers must make these compounds undergo a chemical reaction.
