What is a ton (assay) (UK) commonly used for?

It is an industry-specific mass unit used in assaying to report ore or metal quantities for analytical and commercial purposes in mining.

Why convert from ton (assay) (UK) to stone (UK)?

Conversions help interpret assay mass measurements into more familiar or traditional UK weight units like stone, improving communication across industries and regions.

Is the stone (UK) a scientific unit?

No, the stone is an informal imperial unit mainly used to express body weight in the UK and Ireland and is not standard in scientific contexts.

How to Convert from Ton (assay) (UK) [AT (UK)] to Stone (UK)?

Easily convert weight from Ton (assay) (UK), a traditional mass unit used in assaying, to Stone (UK), an informal imperial unit common in the UK and Ireland for expressing body weight.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts a UK assay ton (AT), a specialized mass measure used mainly in mining and assay labs, into the stone (UK), an imperial unit traditionally used for human body weight and some informal purposes in the UK and Ireland.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the mass value in Ton (assay) (UK) into the input field
Select 'Ton (assay) (UK) [AT (UK)]' as the starting unit
Choose 'Stone (UK)' as the unit to convert to
Click the convert button to view the equivalent value in stones
Use the result to interpret assay reports or convert weights for UK regional contexts

Key Features

Converts from ton (assay) (UK), an industry-specific mass unit for assaying ore and metals
Outputs weight in stone (UK), a traditional unit equal to 14 pounds, used informally to express body weight
Suitable for interpreting mining and assay data in more common UK weight units
Browser-based and simple to use without any downloads
Supports historical and cross-industry weight data reconciliation

Examples

10 Ton (assay) (UK) equals 0.051441195 Stone (UK)
100 Ton (assay) (UK) equals 0.51441195 Stone (UK)

Common Use Cases

Reporting metal quantities in assay certificates using ton (assay) units
Calculating payable metal amounts from ore concentrates based on assay data
Reading and converting historical assay records for resource estimation
Expressing mass data from mining in more familiar UK weight units
Facilitating communication in markets or regions where stone is commonly used

Tips & Best Practices

Always confirm the specific ton type before conversion as ton (assay) differs from other ton units
Use the converted stone values mainly for informal or traditional contexts within the UK and Ireland
Consider industry context since stone is not a scientific unit and its use can vary
Verify assay ton values carefully in mining or metallurgy applications for accuracy
Use the tool to bridge understanding between technical assay data and everyday weight measures

Limitations

Ton (assay) (UK) is distinct from other ton units like long ton or metric tonne and should not be interchanged
Stone (UK) is a non-scientific, informal unit mainly used in the UK and Ireland, limiting universal applicability
Conversion relevance decreases outside regions familiar with these specific units
Precision and standard acceptance of stone units vary depending on context
