Herbo-mineral formulations occupies significant seat in Ayurvedic pharmaceutics. Nearly 70%formulations include combination of one or more metallic/mineral with several herbs which havesupporting role in treating the disease. Trailokyamohana Rasa is one of the herbo- mineralformulation prepared by the Kupipakwa Rasayana method explained in the context of Prameha. Thepresent study deals with the preparation and analytical study of Trailokyamohana Rasa, a uniqueformulation prepared by Antardhuma method of Kupipakwa Rasayana. The analysis ofTrailokyamohana Rasa showed 8.4pH, 1.36% loss on drying, 68.94% of total ash and 38.56% of acidinsoluble ash. X-RAY Diffraction Study of the sample revealed the peak of mercury which was in HgSform. Peaks also showed traces of Calcium, Tin and sulphur which was crystalline in nature. AASanalysis was done which revealed the traces of Calcium 16%, Tin as 7.56%, sulphur as 3.8%,carbonate as 40.25% and loss on ignition was 49.30% and Hg level showed below 1 ppm. Peaks atintervals showed the traces of Hg (Mercury), S (Sulphur). Second peaks showed the traces ofCa(Calcium) and Sn (Tin). Some other components were found such as C (Carbon), O (Oxide), Na(Sodium), Al (Aluminium), Si (Silicon), P (Phosphorus), Cl (Chlorine), K (Potassium), Fe (Iron), Cu(Copper).
