(ft) Refinery slag generally contains from 20 to 60 per cent, of<br />
antimony, and is a mixture of soda, sodium sulphantimoniate,<br />
antimony trioxide and tetroxide, ferrous oxide, iron sulphide, arsenic<br />
oxide, and smaller proportions of silica and alumina; it is added to<br />
charges of ore.<br />
(y) Star slag consists essentially of antimony glass, and is used<br />
repeatedly until it becomes too poor and impure; it is then added to<br />
charges of ore.<br />
