I had around a pound and half of gold plated pins. I placed them in a plastic tub with holes in the bottom and then put that in a larger tub. I used some left over AP solution from deplating fingers. Did not add any more peroxide, but finished covering up the pins with fresh muriatic acid. This was three months ago.
I Still have a lot of undissolved pins, not a problem, just needs more time. I siphoned off the liquid and am left with a good inch of sludge. I took a small sample of it and put it in a strainer and ran water through it to rinse the larger particles. Very pleased with the amount of gold in the screen.
My question is. With left over AP and fresh muriatic acid, is there any way PMs could be in the blue/green rinse? I'm not very sure of my stannos test which is showing negative. I thought blue color was a sign of silver. I have a clear half gallon jug I am filling up with water and shaking, letting settle, then siphoning the blue/green liquid. I would hate to think I am wasting PMs. Thanks!!!
