I always thankful getting old kind soviet connectors, containing 0,14 to 0,76 gr. of gold in each one. 😅 But these days are unfortunately coming to an end. Thanks for the good work, Russian curse words add spice to the refining. 😊
@@ManMountainMetals I've run into that myself. I put plastic connectors in AP some come out nice and clean some a gooey mess with gold flake throughout. I put the gooey ones into my next batch.
Actually, I got 2.94 grams from 400 grams of gold plating, because the pins are 40% gold plated, and that's good. But to dissolve 1000 grams of metal and get 2.94 grams of gold, that's very little 🙂
AK that was an awesome video! The end result was great too! That gold sponge looks fantastic. You should be proud of yourself 😊 I imagine that cost of time and chemicals was less than lucrative but hopefully you enjoyed doing it. I know I'm not the only one happy that youre back and making videos! Also i might have missed it but what were those large containers full of blue liquid? Copper in solution? Anyways have a great day and thank you for sharing with us your expertise, patience, and humor.
Thanks a lot for your attention and support. 🖐 The blue solution is copper nitrate. I extracted copper sulfate from copper nitrate for a very elderly farmer I have known for many many years 🙂

Hi. I need gold ore for this. I told my friend that I am ready to process his quartz, but only if he himself crushes the ore into sand. He said that he will think about it 🙂
To clean the oil from plastic I wonder if you could try Sodium triphosphate. I used it to clean oils from stainless steel plates for hydrogen production. I could never get them clean before discovering this which meant less HHO. The other way is fire. When plastics are destructively distilled the evolved flammable vapours can be used for the immediate heating processes, with metal and carbon remaining.
Hello. To be honest, I have never heard of sodium triphosphate in my life. It's something new for me. I have little experience. Anyway, thanks for the advice. Maybe someday I'll buy sodium triphosphate and try to remove the oil with this reagent, or whatever it's called, alkali?! Thanks for the advice 🙂
Those are new so maybe no tin. I spent years pulling pins out of the plastic connectors. I tried putting plastic and all into AP solution. A week or two all metal dissolved and I take time to check and spray water on every piece with stuck gold. It's a bit monotonous but way faster then trying to pull the pins out. Just saying. Do what you want love the videos. I think to get the purest gold it takes three times refining. I've used smb on the first then ferrous sulfate thinking third will be vitamin c. What do you think?
Hello 🖐 In my opinion, if the solution is dirty, if the solution contains all the metals, tin, lead, nickel, copper and gold, then the best option is to do the first precipitation with iron sulfate, the second precipitation with SMB, and the third, yes, with vitamin C. In my small experience, I can say that SMB pulls other metals from the solution. SMB is a strong reagent. If there is tin in the solution, then after precipitation with SMB you will get a gold precipitate with stannic acid H2SnO3. Although many say that this is impossible, but in my practices for some reason this happens 🙂
Hello. I don't know of any electronic device that doesn't contain precious metals. Any device with a circuit board contains gold and silver, at least silver. If you have an old TV, it will contain more precious metals than a new one. The newer the device, the less precious metals it contains 🙂
I was searching for a comment because i was baffled myself. Palladium also reacts with sncl. Note that dirty looking gold powder/leftover solution can be either from impure metabisulfate or because too much. The yield is great.
SMB was 100% pure. About excess, definitely not. I trying to use SMB as little as possible, only the required amount, because it is a strong reagent and after gold precipitation, if there is excess SMB, the reagent begins to precipitate other metals, such as lead and tin. It seems to me so, but I am not 100% sure 🙂
Hello. It is difficult to advise without seeing the solution and without knowing everything you did. First, you need to be 100% sure that you have dissolved gold and not titanium nitrite. In our modern crazy world, many manufacturers have begun to replace gold with titanium nitrite. If you definitely have gold in the solution and if the solution is small, try to evaporate the entire solution almost to a very, very thick jelly. But not to dryness. Then add a little water, mix everything very well and filter. A lot of nasty stuff will settle on the filter, and gold and, possibly, some metals will pass into the solution. Check the solution for gold content with tin chloride and if there is gold, repeat the gold precipitation. 🙂
@ thanks. Ya it’s gold. Do have a hand full of filters that we need to burn to consolidate. The liquid/acid still show when tested. But will boil down and take the advise. Easier to dig shinny and melt. Lol. Nor cal here and it’s all around us. But learning something new is fun.
He didn’t show using urea to remove excess nitric that one time. Before the smb. But he had so much nitric he must have done this. It happened to me once also. If you watch Sreetips he uses just enough nitric to dissolve the gold. So he doesn’t need to use salfamic or urea
@ thanks for the advise. I did use urea to cancel nitric but I’m sure I’m dealing with garbage I didn’t clean off. We’re boiling down to jelly and start over with aqua Riga. I’ll get back thanks.

That's a good return 👌 I tried that and the acid melted 🫠 the connectors and encapsulated some gold.

2.94 g of gold is a pretty respectful amount to me. The gold really looked nice .
