    I'm not sure if this video is related to the comment I made 2 weeks ago about using pure silver instead of sterling, but in any case thank you for taking the time to educate us once again.
    First, this inquarted gold looked stunning. Pretiest shots on this channel i saw so far. I understand better why you prefer sterling even if it looked a bit less dirty after only one refining. Yes it's cleaner, but by using sterling you can do a double refining (gold + silver) and it's also easier to see when the nitric boils are over. The good thing is that you can recycle the silver indefintly if for some reason you run out of sterling. Crazy pretty ingot at the end as well. Also remember you left some crumble at the first filtration. That missing gram is probably there. Well done!

    Thank you. We appreciate your hard work!
    You have inspired me to try this for myself. The thought of having a hobby that pays for itself is very appealing.
    The chemistry part is easy, as well as the acquisition of scrap to refine, but I would love to see a complete soup to nuts series on waste treatment. I have a strict rule on the farm here where I live and run my heavy equipment repair business. We don't allow anything toxic to go down the drain or hit the ground out here where we also garden and raise chickens. My grandkids drink from our deep well and eat the food we produce and we are sticklers about waste management.

      Review his video library. He’s done a waste treatment video.
      His waste streams are iron sludges and various salts (chloride, sulfate, nitrate).
      By keeping things like lead and mercury out of his process, the iron sludges can be sent to the dump and the salt solutions can go to the city sewer, especially at these low volumes.
      He generates a pure copper mud that is probably scrappable.
      To my mind, obtaining the raw materials is the only thing from keeping me from jumping into this on a hobby scale.

    I’ve been meaning to suggest / comment a similar video request: Would you consider making pure 6K and pouring into bars or shot and selling on your store?
    That would be from pure silver crystal & pure gold, 3:1, which would avoid all the impurities, but yet give that iridescent looking 6K product?
    I just suggest because it would allow you to split up one Ozt of gold into like 4 pieces that you could sell, possibly increasing the amount of people who can buy a Sreetips unique creation, and maybe increasing your own profits?

      It made some very clean looking inquarted gold. That’s because there’s less copper. The main problem, as stated in the video, once it’s dissolved out with nitric, it must be cemented and run back through the silver cell. Using pure silver to inquart gold is like taking a step backwards.
