Hi fellow refiners,
I've been on this forum for over six years and I have learned so much. I collected for years and read this forum daily before I felt like I was ready to begin recovery. I started small and learned my lesions. I did have a close call recovering black sludge from a de-plating cell but was spared by the safety advice on this form. TY TY TY! I recovered 41 grams of Gold and then ended up divorcing and moving out of my home and gold recovery lab. I am now going through my gold recovery stock as I will be moving across the county in Aug. Not sure If I will be picking it up again so I am posting my depopulated stock here:
Lot is ~120 lbs of mostly ready to process electronic scrap. I depopulated this material from high quality 90's equipment with the expectation that I would be refining it. So there is no fill and everything is sorted like you would do for yourself. The memory fingers are trimmed right up to the gold, etc. I know what the expected outcome is for this material cuz I have been processing it. I am willing to sell this lot for 70% of expected outcome which would put your profit at 30% minus materials - $200-250 (Assuming you are making your own nitric).
Requirements:
So you know I'm not a pozer, Here are some pics of my results:
