ok read the platinum section here. then come back and tell us if you think you should.
HAHA, VERY FUNNY! NO JOKE THOUGH I REALLY DO APPRECIATE ALL THE INFO, I FOUND THIS TODAY, THOUGHT SOMEONE MAY WANNA READ IT-
RECOVERY OF GOLD,SILVER AND PLATINUM GROUP METALS
(IT IS BEST TO RECOVER PLATINUM GROUP METALS IN A CLS ELECTROLITIC TANK)
ELECTROLITIC RECOVERY AND REFINING
IF YOU NEED SUPPLIES GO TO OUR STORE ENTER THE STORE
GOLD CAN BE RECOVERED AND REFINED AT THE SAME TIME IN A ELECTROLITIC BATH OF HYDROCHLORIC (MURATIC) ACID.
IT DOES TAKE ALOT OF ELECTRIC POWER,THAT IS THE MAIN REASON IT IS NOT WIDELY USED.
HOWEVER A FEW HYBRID SYSTEMS HAVE SURFACED THAT MAKE IT MORE ECONOMICAL.
AS A REFINER MYSELF I DO NOT RECOMEND ELECTROLITIC SYSTEMS FOR GOLD ON A SMALL SCALE, THEY ARE HOWEVER VERY WELL SUITED FOR PLATINUM.
CLS LEACH TANK.
(MATERIALS NEEDED)
5 GALLON PAIL
STAINLESS STEEL CATHODE PLATE 3 TO 5 INCHES WIDE (NEGATIVE)
GRAPHITE ROD(POSITIVE)
MOUNTED ON ONE SIDE OF THE PAIL IS A GRAPHITE ROD,EXTENDING 1-3 INCHES INTO THE LIQUID.
THE OTHER SIDE HAS A REMOVABLE STAINLESS STEEL PLATE SUSPENDED INTO THE LIQUID 2-6 INCHES.
ATTACH A DC VOLTAGE SOURCE(BATTERY,BATTERY CHARGER,JUMP CABLES,ETC)-/+ AS SHOWN ABOVE.
ALL METALS FROM THE RAW MATERIALS PLACED INTO THE LIQUID WILL PRECIPITATE AND COLLECT ON THE STAINLESS STEEL PLATE AS A RED/BROWN MUD(BROWN/BLACK COLOR=HIGH GOLD&PGM'S),,,(RED=ALOT OF COPPER PLUS LEAD,SILVER)
CYANIDE LEACH SUBSTITUTE - CLS SYSTEM.(PRIMARILY FOR PLATINUM CATALITIC CORES)
FOR SYSTEMS AND SUPPLIES SEE ACTION MINING SERVICES
CLS LEACH MIX
ADD 1 GALLON WATER TO THE TANK.
ADD 1 GALLON MURATIC ACID
ADD 100 ml SULFURIC ACID
MIX 1 OZ CLS WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER
ADD THE CLS/WATER MIX TO THE TANK SLOWLY.
ADD WATER TO COMPENSATE FOR EVAPORATION WITH USE
KEEP TEMP BETWEEN 120* -180*F

I saw 2 different sites about a month ago with several people complaining that the mill does not do everything like it says.Apparently its good at one section of the proccessing but you still have to do a lot of work.I am working on making something that works efficiently that can handle some volume.But just cause it works great for me doesnt mean it will for anyone else.I believe that is the problem with the platinumill, it may work fine for the inventor but its my understanding that it doesnt help everyone.
Hope this helps

hi, just perusing...
a buddy of mine did something like this w/ good results. He got this "CLS" compound from somebody on Ebay, got himself a graphite annode or two, a stainless cathode plate (from a junked muffler), ran the battery charger, and he got the system to work. It did use lots of juice, though, and lots of HCl just to keep the liquor clear. Still, I smelted down a nice PM blob for him. He did all of this using buckets and an old battery charger.
An observation or two: you can clearly do something like this on a small scale w/o heavy capital investment, though I'd worry about the electric (and HCl) bill. Graphite annodes, too, are fickle: sometimes they don't last long (we used thick 1-1/2" gouging rods until the store tripled the price on us). Another thing, the hotter the better (say, in the 150F range), but this produces a noticable toxic smell in a residential neighborhood
My guess, but i'm not sure, is that 'CLS' is actually Ferric-Ammonium Sulphate, which in acid, along with carbon from the annode, creates CN 'on demand', so to speak. I'm assuming that for practial purposes, though, treating the effluent, you've pretty much got a cyanide solution on your hands, so caution is in order.

Hi Scwiers,
"a nice pm blob"
how many cats did he do to get this blob?

hi Platdigger,
this stuff was straight-up, probably 10 lbs or so of populated printed circuit boards from mainframes probably mid-1980s vintage, that GM corporation was dumping. He kept the 20g blob and wouldn't let me treat if further. My guess, a mix of Ag, Pd, and some Au; maybe trace Pt.
