I know itās out there, somewhere..
I'm probably stupid, or this about cementing out leftover acid mixture on copper is so much easier, that it becomes difficult. I have a tendency to overanalyze and I think the situation is like that now. I would be grateful for your views on this new situation. This is one (of many) piece of copper that has been in my stockpot with air pump for about 2 days. I scrubbed off the outermost green/white cement that was stuck very hard. I felt satisfied and collected a few grams of the green/white cement in a test tube, added about 5ml of hydrochloric acid... and just about EVERYTHING dissolved instantly. I thought that now I'm going to drop everything regarding this, because I'm obviously mentally retarded.. When I walked in, my wife called out to me: "-Dennis, come and see if you see what I see". She showed me the round piece of copper that I "almost cleaned". I've resigned myself to the fact that I almost threw away what at least seems to be what I'm looking for. I haven't been able to test with Stannous's test, because what at least looks like cemented gold is firmly attached and I'm afraid it's far too much copper in correlation to the potential gold alloyed? How would you have done in this case?
Apologies for the imperfect sharpness of the pictures.

I know itās a small amount potentially value that seems cemented, but many of those should in time be something
