hey guys, i quartered some gold, and disolved it in nitric, and it completely disolved leaving the gold powder at the bottom, I weighed the gold powder and it yielded what i expected it to. Then I ran an aqua regia over it and it completely dissolved. I let it sit on the heat for a while hoping to neutralize it the best I could. Later I added urea mixed in water until it stopped fizzing, but then when I added the bisulfite it acted like it wasn't neutralized. So I added more urea and it would fiz more, I kept adding it until it completely stopped fizing, and again when I added the bisulfite it acted like it wasn't neutralized. Finally on my third try i managed to completely neutralize it. Then I dropped all the gold out of it, at least it appeared that i did. It wouldn't show any gold on the stannous chloride. After drying my gold I came up about twenty percent short. I have saved all my fluid from the process. Later when I put the fluid on stannous chloride it shows there to be no gold, but after about five minutes It turns black on the paper towel. I've added bisulfite and can't get any gold to drop out. Does anybody have any idea where the gold could have gone? Is it possible the gold is still trapped in the liquid somehow?
