Checking for Gold!

[@francesray6465]

Get the Books by Shepherd and Dietric on Torch assay process. You can measure your beads and refer to a table/graph for the weight if you don't have an expensive milligram balance. Also your beads have a dimpled/soccar ball appearance and could contain silver , and PGM.

Thanks for your input!

Very interesting indeed !!!

[@yaright7765]

The smell must have been out of this world in the oven. Phew! Skunky!

[@exploringnorthernontario9627]

Yes, but you get use to it.

The dore bead left at the end can also contain silver. A further processing with nitric acid to remove the silver is required.
Also arsenic gold ores typically have poor recovery and cost more to process,.

[@exploringnorthernontario9627]

Your right. That's why I didn't bother separating the gold from the silver. Just not worth it.

Did you get an assay gold weight per ton of material?

[@exploringnorthernontario9627]

I figured to be about 5 grams per/ton.
