Sorry if this has been asked (and answered) a million times. A lot of the threads I've read on gold recovery seem to reduce down to extracting the goldish metals from the scrap (board, cpus, etc.) I'm interested more in once you've recovered the metal and have a dore bar of unknown metal proportions. I am reading Hoke's book and studying the chemical method but after seeing a video on how the Royal Canadian Mint gets their .9999 fine gold through electrolysis I am curious how that would work. Of course they gave no details on the solution, voltage, cathode material and how they avoid the other metals like silver from adhering to the cathode.
Anyone have any details on how it is done and if that process would work if you are not already starting out with high purity gold?
