I dont believe I have ever met someone who was tired of ring puns...serves you right for reading too many youtube comments. Go ring someones bell...let them have it! YakYakYak
right? Not only is it really cool to see how some of this stuff can be done "at home" (kind of, he obviously has a kind of unique setup) but it's just really satisfying to see a ring made from metal, purified from rocks he basically took out of his backyard.
I am very happy to share your video with my grade 2 science class. Thank you for informing us of what it takes to make something that we might see every day but might not appreciate the amount of effort needed to create. I am also thankful that your inspirational video can be viewed by a younger audience.
There is a great difference between knowing the science and extracting metals out from ore. This takes years of experience and with such low tech equipment. Dude, it's sick.
I was married to a physicist. He wasn't that great; believe me. He wasn't in to making rings. I think he thought he was too busy with all the work he was doing for work, which was a great amount of work. It must have been. He was hardly ever home. And he always kept his mouth closed up tighter than a crypt. I never found out a single thing he did while he was working at Los Alamos or the other place he worked.
@@VickiBee Sadly, never talking about your work is a condition of employment at places like that. They keep close tabs on you and check specifically to make sure you don't tell your family anything.
I wish I could find someone like Cody. He's so sweet and intelligent. Don't forget handy, as well! I think making a ring from your own materials is the most meaningful act. It makes the jewelry so much more meaningful.
Wow! The love, thought, and creativity put into this.. I would rather receive a beautiful ring like this ANYTIME over some factory made store bought ring.
Too bad most people don't have the equipment(Which can be more expensive then a factory made store bought ring, Depending on if you make the equipment or not.), Or the space(For the mine) to make you something like that, But i do share you're fantasies.
***** Oh, I see. Thanks Cody. Too bad they had to sacrifice a sweetener to get the silver. (Ancient greeks used lead as a natural sweetener to sweeten their food due to the lack of sugar)
***** They also died of lead poisoning, including the Romans who loved sweet lead in their wine. It may have contributed greatly to the collapse of the Roman Empire & the subsequent onslaught of the dark ages. Sleep tight. :)
Υοu are amazing!!!! Keep combining science with art! We have similar ores with galena, sphalerite and silver here in Lavrion, Greece! You are such an inspiration for Geologists!
This video makes me so happy as other RUclips makers do amazing things you go out and get the resources yourself adding a personal touch just like how to make everything
this is like one of the most romantic acts I have ever witnessed. :P intentionally or not. ^^ and if it wasn't and "this" is just who you are - that just makes it even more romantic! she's one lucky lady! and you mr sure have one more subscriber!
You seriously have the life I dreamed of having as a kid, you have the coolest life ever. Great vids man thank you for proving clean, informative and entertaining content.
I don't want to be "that guy", but gold isn't a platinum group element: the platinum group consists of platinum, palladium, osmium, rhodium, iridium, and ruthenium. However, gold is a coinage metal, along with copper and silver. One distinguishing feature between the true platinum group elements and gold is that the platinum group catalyzes the hydrogenation of unsaturated hydrocarbons and nitrogen (as in the Haber-Bosch process) at around 200 degrees Celsius, while gold does not. Interestingly, the row 1 transition metal analogues of the platinum group, iron, cobalt, and nickel also serve as good hydrogenation catalysts (nickel and iron for ammonia generation, and cobalt for forming formaldehyde), but the row 1 gold analogue, copper, is useless in this regard.
+Jack Armellin or just be happy that we all learned something from his comment. People bitch about trolls, people bitch about people trying to be genuinely helpful. Just can't please you people.
Wow it's like watching legit mining in the process, love it. Just to see how it starts and what you get in the end. Must be so proud making something from materials you've forged yourself.
Imagine the poor girl... she asked for a ring -- he made her a ring. But hun, couldn't we get one from the store? Nope, we have a mine, let's get started.
Hat _ It was an attempt at humour.. Don't worry about it. This guy is crazy skilled. The girl in my joke would be my wife, she knows my skills and knows it's gonna end in disaster :)
P. De Rop Ow srry XD its kinda hard to differentiate when people are being sarcastic or people doing it for real also I wish you 2 good luck with your marriage :)
put it this way... if she doesn't value his labor-earned ring more than some jewelry store BS... she's NOT the right girl. because "the right girl" would be over the moon about having a dude that is strong enough to mine rocks, smart enough to extract precious metals from it, and artistic enough to make a ring.
actually it was the combined effort of hundreds of people through history. knowledge combined over time through books and now it's all online. amazing the ingenuity of the human species.
the world on average is getting better,but its just caus we at the west had it easier we are getting the short stick out now , life is like star wars,Jedi though Anakin would bring the balance,but they didnt think their Team is overpowered so the balance hurt them in the end.
The ancient Sumerians were the ones who learned all this orginally. They were taught by 'The Watchers'. People argue about who The Watchers were. Some say aliens, some say fallen angels. Either way they taught men all the this sort of stuff and lots more that has been lost through time.
Definitely not what I was looking for.. It was much better and I enjoyed all of it. It was one of the most complete educational demonstrations I have ever seen.
I came here thinking, because I misunderstood the thumbnail, that Cody carved a ring from a rock, or taking it a step further, he melted the rock and made the ring from the molten results. Speaking of melting rocks, Cody, melt some basalt and spin it into fibers. Mix the fibers with resin to make a composite similar to glass-reinforced plastic, or use it to reinforce concrete. Or braid it into a rope. Don't know what I'm talking about? Enter basalt rebar into your fave search engine and let the learning commence.
This was incredible. Watched the whole thing. I love this! And I learned so much. I won't be doing this ever but it's so interesting, and you are very smart!
Tf if anything I usually find people with rough hands to be more interesting. At least in my experience, they have cool skills and funny stories from working on whatever they do.
+TheDarkalkymist yea single bee no problem... on the other hand... Bees, are the problem. they work as swarm so if one or two stings then there is change the rest of them stings too until the target ain't moving. one one more thing... you can't control them, unlike what you do with the tools.
I enjoyed watching you getting your gold, haven't done that myself yet, but many other metals. Just ran across these, interested in cleaning up some gold myself, and then you got down to the "tar pits". They look far different than the last time I visited. They didn't have gates and fences then, one could get stuck one's self, then, of course there were people available to pull you out. That was in 62 or 63. There wasn't all that space and rocket stuff around back then either. Very good video of the shuttle, better perspective, with people and things all around, nice shots of the engine, and harnesses, electrical and fluid, I got to see much the same of engines of the Saturn V, some point in my travels. All in all, quite interesting look at a part of california I've been through many times, thanks, nice work all around. Semper Fi, John McClain
+Cody'sLab CONGRATULATIONS!!! You both seem so perfect for each other. To find a woman that will share your interests, or at the very least pretend to enjoy your hobbies, is a very lucky thing. Are you guys still engaged?
This entire video is so interesting! I had no idea how much work goes into mining and extracting different metals. Beautiful ring by the end, fantastic job.
+Gent Malushaga It's often used in various dilutions to clean rocks, pavement, ceramic tile, and anywhere that something's been stained. Many stores like Canadian Tire (HomeAuto Improvement stores) sell by the gallon.
If this is how much work it takes to make a single ring. I can see why the cost a limb. Good thing both of you didn't lose any limbs through this awesome process :D
this raw american ethic at its purest. if u need/want something do it urself. my son & i really enjoy ur videos man thank u very much. plus its something educational that keeps him off of the xbox lol.
***** Great! But there is cupellation, impure silver is melted with lead in a shallow dish made of bone ash, called a cupel. A stream of air is blown across the molten mixture, causing the lead and all the base metals alloyed with the silver to oxidize, whereupon they are either absorbed by the cupel or blown away. Pure silver is left behind. That would work?
You really only need a prospecting license. In Canada, you can pan and mine on crown land. I know that in the US most land is owned so you will either need permission or ownership of the land.
+Spark1383 He has some abandoned mines on his fathers property where he lives atm :) He tells you that the ore is what his father and his uncle got out of the mine once.
7:47 Question: When you have the zinc, with a mix of silver. Can't you separate the two metals without using acids? Instead simply use temperature to separate both out. For example: Would the idea of bringing the temperature up over 961 C thus making both metals liquid. Followed by lowering the temperature to something over 419C so that only the silver stays liquid and the zinc becomes solid and drops to the bottom or rises to the top? (Since the zinc has a melting point of 419 C & Silver has a melting point of 961 C.) Someone please educate me on what would happen
Didn't he say that silver is "soluble" in zinc? I'm no expert, but I imagine it is like salt in water. When salt enters water it doesn't really "melt" so it also wouldn't become a solid again before the water it is dissolved in. But salt is an ionic compound and water tears those apart because it can both attract the negative and the positive ions. Why exactly metals dissolve each other / form alloys I do not know.
Cody; you are liveing the life.That silver/lead mine with the ladder,looks like it must be a lot of interesting times.I admire your life style: or what I've seen of it.keep being you

well good for you. I hope y'all are happy together.
+Cody'sLab CONGRATULATIONS!!! You both seem so perfect for each other. To find a woman that will share your interests, or at the very least pretend to enjoy your hobbies, is a very lucky thing. Are you guys still engaged?
+Cody'sLab did she say no?
Soyy Sauce she said "bletch"
This guy is like a frickin cowboy from the wild west.
Killer video only one I've ever seen where someone takes raw material from the earth and turns it into refined jewelry. HATS OFF TO YOU!
I am 14 and I just like watching cody's videos.
They are so interesting
Good job cody!!!!!
Actually it's quite relevant, you just have to consider the average attention span of a 14 year old.
she's a gold digger xD
+Joe Wilson i fell out of my chair
Shiny Ditto ...k
lol I fell off my couch!
I fell...
my god people stop falling!
This entire video is so interesting! I had no idea how much work goes into mining and extracting different metals. Beautiful ring by the end, fantastic job.
You look like Shaggy from scoobydoo
Captain Capellini not as hungry all the time tho
Kinda does with the hair but he's not a stoner. Trying not to be rude.
Captain Capellini LMAOO
Split up, gang
That's a lot of work but you sure accomplished what you set out to do. Good job!
Such a cool story and a thoughtful gift for your sweetie! Well done!
This guy is a true genius, I would pay money to spend the week with him
Lol do you just keep a bucket of acid lying around?
+Gent Malushaga
Yes, doesn't everyone?
+Cody'sLab How did you get your own mine
+Gent Malushaga he dug a hole
+Gent Malushaga It's often used in various dilutions to clean rocks, pavement, ceramic tile, and anywhere that something's been stained. Many stores like Canadian Tire (HomeAuto Improvement stores) sell by the gallon.
+Gent Malushaga Muriatic acid, HCl (the same acid that is in your stomach), can be purchased in most hardware stores
If this is how much work it takes to make a single ring. I can see why the cost a limb. Good thing both of you didn't lose any limbs through this awesome process :D
why do you need a metal can thing to roast ore? you can just insult it many times
Who else thought he was gonna make a rock ring?... Or is it just me?!?
this raw american ethic at its purest. if u need/want something do it urself. my son & i really enjoy ur videos man thank u very much. plus its something educational that keeps him off of the xbox lol.
By controlling the temperature you could melt the lead and not the silver? Lead should melt at half the temperature of silver.
***** Great!
But there is cupellation, impure silver is melted with lead in a shallow dish made of bone ash, called a cupel. A stream of air is blown across the molten mixture, causing the lead and all the base metals alloyed with the silver to oxidize, whereupon they are either absorbed by the cupel or blown away. Pure silver is left behind. That would work?
***** Great, thank you!
+BBBDubb He's annoying by being smarter than you? Go troll somewhere else. It was actually an insightful post.
+Ken Andrews TURN DOWN FOR WHAT! XD
Diegogoogle60 What the hell are you on about?
My left ear enjoyed this video
Civilisation will never truly collapse as long as people like Cody hold this vital knowledge.

Irk dude
+hervvehh ye :D
lollllll
I guess you all agree :D
Wait I'm new here you own mines? How did you come across ownership? Passed on my family? What's the approximated worth? That sounds awesome
Abandoned ones are cheap, so are mineral rights
+Derek Cook thanks :)
+Derek Cook I really had no idea, that's interesting.
You really only need a prospecting license. In Canada, you can pan and mine on crown land. I know that in the US most land is owned so you will either need permission or ownership of the land.
+Spark1383 He has some abandoned mines on his fathers property where he lives atm :) He tells you that the ore is what his father and his uncle got out of the mine once.
Don't give up Cody, I think it's amazing you have your own mine and can play around like that. Blast some more and see what happens. You never know!
7:47 Question: When you have the zinc, with a mix of silver.
Can't you separate the two metals without using acids?
Instead simply use temperature to separate both out.
For example:
Would the idea of bringing the temperature up over 961 C thus making both metals liquid.
Followed by lowering the temperature to something over 419C so that only the silver stays liquid and the zinc becomes solid and drops to the bottom or rises to the top?
(Since the zinc has a melting point of 419 C & Silver has a melting point of 961 C.)
Someone please educate me on what would happen
Didn't he say that silver is "soluble" in zinc? I'm no expert, but I imagine it is like salt in water. When salt enters water it doesn't really "melt" so it also wouldn't become a solid again before the water it is dissolved in. But salt is an ionic compound and water tears those apart because it can both attract the negative and the positive ions. Why exactly metals dissolve each other / form alloys I do not know.
Zinc has a boiling point of 907 so if you heat both metals up to 961 C the Zinc would evaporate and you will be left with the Silver.
Richard Fry a
Look up Eutectic system in Wikipedia.
@@moemara Boiling it out would take a long time. You could use a assay furnace and a bone cupel to get rid of the zinc.
I subscribed when he said he was mining silver from his mine...
Cody; you are liveing the life.That silver/lead mine with the ladder,looks like it must be a lot of interesting times.I admire your life style: or what I've seen of it.keep being you
