About these units
Ton (Assay) (US) (AT (US))
The US assay ton is a specialized unit used in mining and metallurgy for evaluating ore grades. It is defined as 29.166⅔ grams, a very small mass chosen to simplify calculations relating assay results to tons of ore. The idea is that if an assay ton of sample yields 1 milligram of precious metal, then one actual ton of ore contains 1 ounce of that metal. This scaling makes laboratory results directly translatable to mining yields. While obsolete in modern industrial practice, where metric units dominate, the assay ton remains important in historical mining records and for researchers studying early industrial metallurgy.
Assarion (Biblical Roman) (assarion)
The assarion, worth 1/16 of a denarius and weighing roughly 0.25 grams, was one of the smallest Roman coins. It appears in biblical writings to illustrate humility or trivial monetary values ("Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion?"), giving cultural insight into economic metaphors of the time. As a weight, the assarion shows how finely Roman society subdivided monetary units for everyday commerce.
