You could heat up the mixture to about 3400°C, all that would be left is the Tungsten Carbide . This is how it is done in the trade.
Most of the tungsten metal powder is converted to tungsten carbide (WC) by reaction with pure carbon powder, e.g. carbon black, at 900 - 2200°C in pusher or batch furnaces, a process called carburisation.
