i strip rh and gold from fantasy jewllery---they are ussualy brass plated with gold and rh over it-----i use hno3 in a water solution and do it cold and overnight---sometimes 5kilos of jewellery becomes 20grams of rh +gold flakes---sometimes 5kilos becomes 200 to 500grams of a powder with the same flakes----
i would like to have help in the following:why 5 kilos leaves 20grams of flakes and other 5kilos leaves 500 or so grams of a powder +the20grams of flakes???
whem i add hno3 to copper wire plated with pm,all the copper dissolves and what remains is the pm flakes---
note:i process 5kilos daily (when i have material) and always have different results---- the difference is huge
