How do you know how much silver is truly in the ore? The assayer weighs, roasts, and measures until the metal gives up its secret. Beringer's text, revised across nine editions, teaches the exact science of testing ores and metals, with diagrams and tables throughout. The trusted standard for the assay office. Learn to read the real worth of a rock.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
