Hello everyone,
Good morning/afternoon /evening
I followed the CuCl2 process described in the forum to recovery some gold from a small amount (less than 200g) of magnetic and non magnetic pins (not fully plated) (see for example image 1 and 2 ). i tested the solution with stannous and the test was negative. Then i collected all the material that remains after the filtering process (I rinsed with water- HCl- water ) separately for magnetic and non-magnetic pins (figure 3 bottom view , figure 4 top view ). from the Top view is visible a lot of brown/dark brown (not black) material, that is not soluble in 34% HCl.
In my opinion should not be Copper salts (i dissolved Copper 1 chloride during the process adding more HCl) or silver.
I would like to know your opinion on what it could be.
Thank you for your attention,
have a nice day
