Pour déterminer les minéraux, on peut observer les réactions à la fusion et la coloration de la flamme à l'aide d'un chalumeau, expérience appelée essai au chalumeau dans les milieux spécialisés. [...] En soufflant dans le chalumeau, on peut intensément augmenter la température d'une flamme [...] et l'orienter sur un point précis. Cela engendre des réactions d'oxydoréduction qui produisent des phénomènes de fusion, de dissociation et de sublimation, ainsi que la formation de gaz et la coloration de la flamme. Ces réactions fournissent des indications sur la composition chimique de l'échantillon à déterminer. 4, record 1, French, - essai%20au%20chalumeau
