lab result
example report. sample data, not a real test.
this is what a result will look like. three examples: a pass, a partial pass and a fail.

payout released at the claimed alloy's rate, plus the deposit minus the lab fee.
- deposit
- $100: returned minus the lab fee
- lab fee (kept)
- $70
- deposit back
- $100 − $70 = $30
- ingot payout
- 40 lb × $1.50/lb = $60
- net to you
- $90
- after your deposit
- $90 − $100 = −$10

no payout and the deposit is kept. the ingot comes back at your cost or gets scrapped, whichever you picked at intake.

limits shown are reference values from the published alloy standards, still to verify. the lab report is what counts.
resubmit
cleaner melt or a different ingot? resubmit it. it gets a new intake id and a fresh deposit.
