Analyze, as substances (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

assay

(Other definitions for assay that I've seen before include "Test ore for value" , "Analyse to find the properties" , "Examine (ore or alloy?)" , "Test purity of precious metal" , "Test(ing) of a substance, such as precious metal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
