Hi from Ontario

[canuk]

Hi all! Great community here, In the past year I have been following the pm markets and been purchising some of my own. Now I am interested in every aspect involved. A friend asked me if I knew how to refine gold from electronic and I have no clue. So a little search online and I came across this forum. I am looking forward to learning anything I can and helping in any way I can.

Regards
M

Hi M , and welcome to the forum!
You've stumbled across the best place on the planet to study the art of the wet recovery and refining of precious metals , this is without doubt the open university on the subject!
There's a lot to learn and go through on the subject , and the best head start that you could be given in this field is your own copy of C. M. Hoke's 'Refining Precious Metal Wastes' , which describes the chemistry behind a lot of what goes on around here ;

Theres a whole lot more too , so hang about and let us all know how you get on with it!
All the very best with it , and kind regards ,
Chris :mrgreen:

Hey guys.
I'm also new to this site. Been reading all day and am I'm overload now, lol.I'm also in Ontario, I'm closer to Ottawa however.good to see lots of locals doing the same things as me. Next step is getting and reading hooks. Send like it's highly recommended by most here.

You 2 are in Newmarket, (occasionally). Would either of you be willing to mentor?

i live in oakville, my circle is where ever the profit takes me. now that gas is 2/3 the price that circle is a bit bigger 8)

and not to discourage you but........ you have a fantastic mentor right on your screen :!:

i see people with 40 years + of experience on this board, total combined experience may be somewhere around 500 or 600 years.

that's a big house full of books.

 

[Hydra]

Aye, but this amatuer enjoys hands-on learning, and real-time mentoring ensures I know right away if I'm about to make a mistake. It also ensures there is someone readily availible to phone emergency services in the case of an accident.

I wouldn't ask for you to go out of your way to reach me anyway. Got my own vehicle to get around in.

 

[rewalston]

No I do live in Newmarket. Only problem I have is I don't have any material to work with besides some keyboard mylars that I'm sitting on. I don't have a vehicle so I have put aside collecting stuff...just reading the forums.

So if I was able to supply some scrap you might be interested, Rusty. I have a few circuit boards showing gold from broken game systems, and I can get my hands on some more E-scrap fairly easily.

 

[necromancer]

gold on boards is small amounts of gold. you will need lots.
