Ok, Ill try my best to go through Hokes book about refining. But where do I start? I mean theres tonnes of knowledge over there about multiple different processes. Which one to go for? I only fear ill end up getting myself lost and confused in it. Its a totally different world.
On another note, anyone can please clarify this. It looks super fine brown powder wouldn't react with HCl. Now is it gold or am I looking at something else?
There are people in here that is very knowledgeable in Cyanides, but not too many used to these magic potions,
though there have been a few asking a bout them having trouble, they tend to disappear relatively quick and do not report if their trouble was solved or not.
Pictures of mixed powders is not possible to identify with any degree of certainty.
Use of strong Peroxide and UV will destroy the Cyanide component I believe.
After that filter the solids and so on as in the waste treatment thread, letting the solids properly dry in the sun.
Then you can let the liquids evaporate in the sun and add what ever solids from that be joined with the others.
So now you should have some 50-100 grams of solids that can be kept in a closed jar or disposed in special waste.
And nothing have been poured down the drain.
And as Galenrog say , read the book, then read it again with more focus on the areas of interest and
then you read the chapters of need with renewed interest and making notes.
The book do not focus on e-waste but the chemistry behind things and will give you a foundation to build on.
