I recently processed about 1/2 oz of gold from my cell. I dried the filter cake and dissolved in Hcl-cl.
After filtering I was left with a good quantity of salts which wouldnt pass through the filter.
I did my smb precip which yeilded about 12 gr, and wondered if any Au was lost in the salts.
I tried to process the salts but seem to be going around in circles.
I boiled up some of the salts in hcl and indeed there is a good quantity of gold as can be seen in the pic.

I tried to dissolve with hcl-cl but just ended up with salts again shown in the secon pic.

Any ideas on processing these salts anyone ?
