Hey everyone! Well I've been sitting on these ceramic eproms for quite some time now. Mostly because I didn't know how to exactly process them. And when I did find out how to process them I learned that there wasn't too much gold to be had from them.
97 small ceramic Eproms w/gold visible
43 Large c. Eproms w/ gold
49 large c. Eproms w/o gold
39 small c. Eproms w/o gold
That's the total of what I have. I didn't weigh them unfortunately. But there's the eproms with gold visible and there is the ones without. And large and small. Some of these had no windows so I guess those are called proms? Well since it looks to be a simple process I was hoping to put this up there and post my results from them. But before I started I want to make sure of something.
First of these ones without gold visible. So does that mean I process them with nitric and distilled water to get silver? Or just aqua regia for hopefully gold? If there's no gold visible and there's no silver, should I even process them?
Second is there silver at all? Meaning should I hit all of them with nitric first to recover any silver? My plan is straight to aqua regia, this I got from researching on the forum. Is there any other way that y'all would recommend? Any advice is always welcomed! Here are some pics for your viewing pleasure
