i am after the gold inside these chips---i incinerate these chips and make a grey powder with a lot of iron----i tried to separate the powder from this iron wire with a magnet without sucess---the fine powder separated continues magnetic.
i put all this incinerated powder +wire in full strenght hcl and boil for a while,then i dilute this hcl (now green solution) and continue boiling---i filtrate the powder from the hcl solution and dry it in a oven---when i try to see if the powder is still magnetic, it continues magnetic.
what can i do (chemically) to eliminate this iron? if i do an ar dissolution of the powder with the iron mixed in it,no gold goes to the ar solution because the gold precipitates over the iron-------
i need help from members of how to eliminate the iron before i do an ar or hcl-clorox or hcl-h2o2 leach?
i have 200 kilos of memory sticks and each kilo have 397grams of black chips(79kilos of chips----i did obtain gold from the chips but with a lot of trouble to eliminate the iron----thanks all for the help
