Good morning refiners. I am Wizzle. I finished hokes book. Read through some of the forums. And began my journey to refining my refining.
I had to wait until yesterday do use nitric due to waiting for a chem mask and face shield. Nitric bath was good. I didnt get a boil over and wasted all the nitric. I did not filter hot. Which left me with picture 1.
I also tested with some AR some material i had messed up during processing which was intersting. These were processed in AP. Pinnless cpu with mcll still attached. When using urea i got zero reaction. However it was cold. I warmed it and still got no reaction. Dropped with smb and got white powder at very little bottom with brown powder on top. I assume its lead and maybe a small amount of silver and the gold has settled on top of it.
So I am going to heat all of this separately of course and refilter.
Am I on the proper path here or is my understanding of mistakes off?
