Refine metal (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

smelt

'refine metal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for smelt that I've seen before include "Sniffed - fish" , "Inhaled odour" , "Small fish of salmon species" , "emitted noxious effluvium" , "Fish related to the salmon (which ponged?)" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and the King Feature Syndicate.
