Hi everyone,
I am dissolving some gold plated pins in AR, ( I did not incinerate them prior to placing them in) so as my solution became saturated, I poured off some of the liquid into jars in order for me to place fresh acid in my beaker. All the gold has not dissolved yet , so I have gold in the jars floating and lying at the bottom of the jar. Something very interesting happened in two of the jars a white shiny crystal base formed on top of the gold as the solution was cooling. Could this be lead or silver? Any ideas ( this has not happened before)
