I have mixture of gold, silver, tin, lead and copper as iodides. It was made by adding iodide and SMB to solution after AR dissolving and messing up by adding aluminum. Aluminum was added after SMB precipitation failed. Adding potassium iodide will turn them into soluble coplex forms. How can I drop out the gold separately? vitamin c does not work good, adding hydroxide and heating coprecipitates oxides. Maybe I should add hydroxide alone and heat to precipitate gold and oxides, lead and tin will dissolve in excess hydroxide. I would have then copper oxide, silver oxide and gold as powder. Then simply adding weak acid like acetic should dissolve silver and copper leaving gold. Is that a good idea? Thanks in advance.
