Why?

added to 1 pint of potasseum nitrate and distilled water. heres problem all was stripped clean ag is nice color green.

It is not Ag. It is mix of all possible metals in solution.

i used sodium bisulfate to persipitate the gold out yes before this i added urea.the bisufate i got from pool supply store its 93% bisulfate 3% inert ingrediant but had no change in color no smell. nothing seems to be happening.

It should be Sodium metabisulfite

what have i missed need help. to get back on track thanks for input

first of all, what you have created is Aqua Regia and im sure it did dissolve all the metal. now here's the problem, when you dissolve the tin (as in tin solder) this way it creates stannic acid. when you dissolve silver(as in silver solder) this way it creates silver chloride. i don't know where you received your instructions to do this process but it couldn't have been here.stannic acid is a waxy gelatinous mess to deal with and silver chloride is a white fluffy substance that is a pain in its own right. both make filtering of your material very hard to do.
test with stannous chloride to insure you have precious metals in your solution.
filter out all solids.
add sodium metabisulfite ( not bisulfate ) a little at a time and stir till you get a color change.
let stand until liquid is clear.
and read C.M. Hokes book
