He also introduced new metallurgical processes for the profitable handling of the low-grade sulphide ores that constituted most of the mineral body of the mines.
While the metallurgical treatment of ores is an essential factor in mine economics, it is considered that a detailed discussion of the myriad of processes under hypothetic conditions would lead too far afield.
The ore may present visible metallurgical difficulties which make it unprofitable in any event.
The first requires a statement of the plant constructed, its object and accomplishment; the second a disclosure of tonnage produced, values, metallurgical and mechanical efficiency.
Complete and exhaustive examination, entailing extensive sampling, assaying, and metallurgical tests, is very expensive and requires time.
Metallurgical treatment, if determined by past experience on the ore itself, carries no chance; and where determined by experiment, the risk is eliminated if the work be sufficiently exhaustive.
In such cases the paramount questions are the reduction of costs by better plant, larger outputs, new processes, or alteration of metallurgical basis and better methods.
Mine examinations are very often inspired by the belief that extended operations or new metallurgical applications to the mine will expand the profits.
The "proved" ore taken on known metallurgical grounds, under known conditions of costs on minimum prices of metals, has a value as certain as that of money in one's own vault.

I'd even had a little metallurgical testing done on it down at Princeton, just to prove that hunch.
The steel was analyzed and its metallurgical formulas were changed.
In continental practice much of the metallurgical specifications and also of the details of mechanical measurements, limits of requisite accuracy, variations which can be allowed, etc.
We did receive the drawings, the specifications, the metallurgical instructions and the like, but these we found to be unreliable and unsatisfactory from our point of view.
So from the metallurgical standpoint alone this became a laboratory job of analysis and investigation.
For instance, according to the French instructions the metallurgical requirements for the engine crank-shaft called for mild steel.
All of this information and experience was of invaluable assistance not only in designing the new engine, but in determining its essential metallurgical and manufacturing specifications.

Golden is the Colorado State School of Mines (opened 1874), which offers courses in mining engineering and metallurgical engineering.
Metallurgical and ceramic engineers test and evaluate the strength, durability, and other characteristics of materials to be used in the fabrication of equipment, and they produce new materials for specific jobs.
For instance, the only metallurgical operation for the extraction of gold employed up to 1889 was the stamping mill, and fine gold and amalgam were necessarily abundant in the tailings which were cast away on the spoil heap.
