Smelting furnace

I can’t figure out how to use the smelting furnaces. It I try to hit them or walk over i get the message “Hot fire burns you. Your HP has been decreased by 2.” And I get teleported to the same position always

Tapping them does nothing.

There’s a genie next to the furnaces who says “That tickles” when I tap them. Hitting them does nothing.

The sign says “To smelt cinnabar - Hit the Furnace and Feed the Flames.”

Hitting or tapping the flames does nothing.

What am I missing here?

You need the Smelting Ability.

You need the Smelting Ability.

I fold, and must ask for help. Who will give the Smelting Ability?

You get it from Tumin the Armorer in New Magica.

Thank you! He requested 10 pcs of uranium to be processed. No location on the map refers to a uranium mine. No quest logs mention uranium. Where could i find uranium?

It seems i already had 15 pcs of uranium, but heck if i know where I got it

You can mine Uranium in a secret area in the east of the Sulphur Mines if you have Cynder's Axe.

Thanks for the clarification!
