Ok so here is what I have done ...and I hope I havent messed up my first batch but I went small just in case
I used muriatic acid 31.45% to disolve the other metals away from the gold how ever I noticed last night on my first test jar that the gold plating that was on the peices of metal I put in the jar seemed to have come off and I was left with what appeared to be bear looking metal ...where did the gold go is it in the solution of acid just floating there doing its own thing ??
if it is what do I need to do to get it out ? I noticed my acid had turned a slight greenish color is this good or bad ?
if you can help I would be much obliged
