Hi all
So as a new member like i guess (mabe not most of us) other did i went read the more i can on the forum.. so here i have to say tank you to allot of people here !!! well.. tank you !
Here are what i started with.. i got them from ebay auction with description of not scrap gold.. real gold.. 18k solid gold. For a ridiculous price.. it was a scam of course but little fight with paypal on buyers protection and i got them for nothing !
Also i have harvested some pins and connector from graphics cards..
This is what they looked like after the bath.. i did 454g pins and jewel..
*** i am not sure if it been all un-plate.. it is my first run.. but i did keep all the material for a later try***
With some youtube hours and many hours of traduction and some members help i build my cell ..
Computer power supply on 12v been use.. (i dint get any read from the amp meter.. but i been careful to keep the bath cold as i could)
My bath was at first a little greenish and after it can dam dark.. this picture is about 2 day.. i was not to happy because i could not see any amelioration to get the powder out from there
So to make life faster i sucked all the juice to diluted it with 7 time is weight..
It went way faster and i been able to suck the top translucent solution ... i did that like 10 time (always filtering my waste) until i have it to only 1L jar
Here i finally took the bottom of the jar to go in 4 layer of coffee filter..
I took all the filter and washed them as best as i can with a water sprayer in a smaller jar again and gave a last wash of water
It was time to make the water evaporate
I finally got that black / grayish powder.. i did incinerate it so it is now ready to get in HCl-Cl bath
on the last picture final weight is 0.36g (i still have some powder sleeping in water.. i would say 0.6 or so)
Conclusion.. that was heck of fun to do from A to Z.. because i took the time to read.. and ask the good question.. taking my time with the best environment possible and the maximum security .. well it went number 1.. i dint have any issue .. i am so proud of me !
I will probably sit on this powder for couple time.. as there is not that much.. i would like to add is weight to a more important project hehe ( i have bunch of flat pack to do.. still reading on it to make it the easiest way possible )
Again tank you all.. i have fun reading most of you and learning way to much each day.. my head spinning ! but i like it !
P.s. my only question would be.. how much power should i expect from a run like this ? as i think i dint un-plate well.. i am pretty sure i will score low .. but its ok with me
or let say i have about 1g of powder.. what should i expect ounce melted ?
