Hello,
I, over the past year and a half, have been studying chemistry, and have also been studying the extraction of precious metals, such as gold. I recently had a gold refining kit shipped by JSP (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B51Y8F1Y?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details). I also had an order of Hydrochloric acid (also from JSP), and a graphite ingot mould. I've been in the metal industry for 7 years now, starting with both melting in a foundry, and blacksmithing, so the graphite mould is not much of an issue for me. The thing I was concerned about, was the process of the chemical work. I have everything I need, to my knowledge, and I even have a teacher who is willing to let me use his fume hood and heating plates. If anyone has tips for a first timer?
