Ok so I figured out what's going on. This is my gold oddly enoughView attachment 66345 Dirt is not reactive enough to dissolve at a rate clear to the eye least sodium nitrate so neither would tar right or bitumen unless because their both just organic matter one really compressed one not. But rn i worked up the courage to treat my heavy coal weighted and colored inside with what I believed was gold with hcl and sodium nitrate clearly green seems like it's gonna take forever though so I set it in a bucket with lid part of the way off in a large Mason jar surrounded by a mountain of baking soda nudged it right in there outside. Any way to speed it up other than heat I'm tired and need sleep. Any action gonna take place bad if I shut my eyes. I'm a very paranoid creature mind you worried and anxious all the time. Also guy I sent a 200 dollar m/o to tipped me off a little. I'll test with stannous when I get it dammit. Mail runs super slow rount here

Please rewrite this in plain text this is barely readable.

That might depend on the age and source of the Coal.
I have never heard about it in nature.
But activated Carbon is good at soaking up Gold.
Anyway Yellow do not equal Gold, there are a multitude of yellow substances out there.

Coal is not soluble in any of the Chemicals we use.
It needs to be burnt to ashes.
And that means completely to ashes.
Then you can treat the ashes for what ever values are in there.
