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.
Mina (Biblical Hebrew) (mina)
A mina was a mid-sized Hebrew weight unit, commonly approximated as 560–600 grams, though it varied historically. It served as the intermediary unit between the shekel and the talent: 1 talent = 60 minas 1 mina = 50 shekels Minas were used in both commercial trade and temple accounting. They appear in ancient Near Eastern texts describing wages, penalties, and allocations of precious materials. Because of their role in administrative and religious contexts, the mina highlights the bureaucratic sophistication of ancient Israel and surrounding cultures.
