Hi, my names Mitch and I'm living in QLD Aus.
I've been interested in gold refining for a while now and after finding this site I was finally able to do it safely and with great results. At the moment I'm working with mostly RAM fingers until I get the process down and then will will move on to other processes like AR and the like.
I was on eBay earlier today and saw a gold 24K plated bullion over copper base for $9, it says there is at about 1 gram of gold on it.
My question is, if I was to buy it could I use the AP method to remove the copper base? That would just leave the gold plating as a loose "leaf" in solution.
Now if I were to believe the seller and got 1 gram of 24K gold form it and with today's gold price as $1534 ish an ounce, making it $54 ish a gram, making my profit $45 ish. That's not including the copper that I had in solution.
Does this make sense and would this work ??
I appreciate all feedback
Thanks in advance
