Obviously can't melt due to melting point. Any suggestions not sure how you would guarantee a uniform quantity of toungsten per pellet. my thoughts are if you mix it it will just stay low down in the melt and probably all be gone in the first pellets dropped. And i dont know how you could clad bismuth with toungsten powder. Just my thoughts on the matter, i have never mixed any toungsten powder with anything or even seen any for that matter.
