Hi,
this is my first post, but been a long time reader. First of all thank you for all that have shared their knowledge.
After many month of reading, I started a coupe of weeks ago doing tests with AP. As far as fingers go, so far so good (still have not refined them, waiting for a few grams to do so).
As part of my test, I decided to run this weekend a AP test on pins and cable ends. The pins are so so, may need to run a test on warm HCL.
But with cable ends things have gone crazy. First the color is a deep dark green, second, every time I added peroxide white flakes surfaced. Now that I'm trying to filter there's a solid green stuff at the bottom and the liquid itself is full of small green particles.
First I should have not done AP with cable ends, perhaps hot HCL? Second, was this caused by aluminum pins that caused the cimentation of the copper? Third, should I run this condensate thru another AP to remover the copper (if this really is copper). Thank you in advance for your replies.
