    Remember, the SMB produces SO2 gas which precipitates the gold. When you dump the SMB on the surface of the ice raft all the SO2 gas just goes into the air without reacting with the solution. Might try mixing the SMB in water before adding with these huge gold volumes. Or constant stirring might help.

      Alchemy is the art of profiting off magic of turning low value to high value. Not Harry Potter fantasy magic; Penn and Teller Fool Us magic. Alchemy is about lying to people and making money from it using chemistry or any other manipulative means. This is chemistry not alchemy. This is science degree (chemistry) versus art degree (lying).

      I think the ions were free moving ( not bound) once the salt was suspended in fluid. So, I guess it would have been electrically conductive ( prior to adding the SMB ) Probably the metal detector coil measures ( senses) electrical conductance sorta because the conductive solution would interfere / interrupt the magnetic flux within the detector coil of wire which has only a small voltage and current enough to maintain a minimal continuity without having the coil collapse or rather without the magnetic flux being reabsorbed back into the coil wire. I dunno 🤔

    The last time I dropped gold from solution, I took your tip of chilling the solution first. But I did it a bit differently. Rather than putting ice into the solution, I placed the beaker containing the solution into another container holding ice in brine, much like the old crank ice cream making machines. Worked wonderfully. Was probably much colder than using ice directly.

    Whats the density comparison between crystal chloroauric acid and elemental?
    That chlorine smell is the molecular decomposition by heat, I believe. Thats why you have so much gold that came out. Smelting could reduce it but unsure if gold could be in the smoke. Try this again without adding water when re-liquifying. Remember your metal detector didnt see it.

    Hi Kevin, I suspect that the metallic gold precipitated as you re-hydated the dried chloroauric powder with hyrochloric acid. There was sufficient liquid to dissolve the entire dried acid base but not enough to hold all the metal in solution. Essentially the fresh hydrochloric got saturated and the excess metallic gold that couldn't be held in solution dropped out as metallic gold precipitate.
    As you were evaporating the solution Aqua regia solution, the nitric part of the solution was holding some gold in a liquid state.
    In fact as it got dried there mignt just been dropped gold in the flakes but in small particles that acted as seeds to drop the metallic gold when re-hydrated.

    What happened when you evaporated the chloroauro acid down is create gold chloride . Whis is soluable in water. .
    By adding commerical hydrochloric acid, this contains a large percentage of water to be stable and safe to handle.
    Which put your gold back in solution, and your left with an excess of hydrochloric acid. .
    Adding the stumpout creates carbon dioxide hydrogen and yellow sulphur , which is exothermic in its 2 reactions. Reacting to the excess hydrochloric acid, and flipping off the chlorine atoms off the gold ions, and then the gold ions attact each other in the water rich environment, which the chlorine ions are trying to bind to the sulfur and sodium to create salts.

    Interesting how there was metallic gold left from the salt, apparently nature does like to come to equilibrium and gold doesn't want to stay at that salt form for long.

It also looked like more finer particles when you poked it around so good for some things I guess.

    An amazing lesson in how to hide pure gold in plain sight ✌️

    So I've been studying what you do. I've come up with a theoretical test that I want your opinion on. Black sand containing Au and Ag get a 5 gallon bucket then roast the sulfide off then do your muriatic acid to remove silver from gold ? I wonder how much silver you could silver cell and how much gold would drop out of solution from the black sand 🤔 I think the roasted black sand would silver chloride really fast? 🤔

      HCl won’t dissolve silver. Nitric dissolves silver.

    I think I understand. How to hide gold in such a manner that foils the efforts of thugs and thieves to find and steal it. I understand that some expensive metal detectors can differentiate between some metals. We are at a disadvantage today because almost everyone expects most mundane items to be plastic.

    I saw another you tuber make purple gold recently. I was wondering if you would consider making an attempt to make some since you have the skills, knowledge and the equipment to do the awesome experiments you do. Just a thought. 🙂

      I not very experienced at creating gold alloys. I’m a refiner, I go the other way with the it, separating the junk metals to get pure gold.

    Saludos desde México, me gusta mucho su trabajo, soy joyero y me gustaría saber cómo se puede presipitar el oro de una solución de cianuro de sodio y peróxido, ojalá me pudiera orientar y que mejor sería que hiciera el proceso en unos de sus videos,gracias y que siga teniendo éxito en su trabajo

    Try the metal detector on the possible metallic gold.

    Hi Sreetips, and thanks for the video.
    I suspect that your solution was too concentrated for the smb precipitation. You can save money on reagents using SO2 gas and diluting the solution. It also helps with the temperature

    This answers another question I had about chloroauric acid which is how stable is it? Some of it reverted back to metallic gold after you added hydrochloric acid and heated it, even without stump-out.

      And here I am wondering if we could use this process intentionally for another refining method!

      I fairly certain that the salt can be stored indefinitely in a tightly closed glass container.

    Greetings to you, dear professor, a question when the gold was precipitated with tin chloride, can I recover the tin from the solution, thank you.

    • @sreetips
      @sreetips  2 месяца назад +1

      I’ve never tried recovering tin. I don’t know how to do it.

    I would have thought that using the gas precipitation method would have been easier with this much gold, with the added bonus of not having to dump a bunch of extra ions in solution. You had mentioned that this direct method with the smb could leave auric chloride suspended in the metallic gold because of the scale of the batch; doesn’t the gas precipitation yield a finer precipitate?

    • @sreetips
      @sreetips  2 месяца назад

      SO2 gas requires a dilute solution. So I’d have to add 8 gallons of water to get it right for SO2 gas precipitation. I don’t a container that big.

    Sreetips, I wonder if you could freeze dry the solution, and get a decent result?

    @24:15 I think this happened during crystallisation, I suspected that was happening at the time. I think that crystal growth depleted areas of chlorine so not enough to generate crystals at those locations so the only thing the gold can do at that point (not being soluble any more) is fall out. Anyone else think this?
