    Most seeds in the family Rosaceae, mainly from the genus malus (Apples), pyrus (Pears) and prunus (Cherries, almonds, etc.) among others. Sweet almonds and sweet apricots still have the amygdalin. You'd have to eat several bushels of almonds and a little less than that in sweet aps. The seeds aren't anywhere near as bad in Rubus (Raspberry, blackberry, thimbleberry, boysenberry, etc) and Fragaria (Strawberry). Yes, all of the fruits listed are related albeit somewhat distantly, in the rose family.

    You put a couple of mls of motor oil on the comparison plane (which u know is flat), then u take a piece of paper or fabric, dip said cloth in the pigment, spread the pigment and motor oil on the comparison plane, grab the Component that u need to check, put it flat against the plane and move it around just a bit to get the pigment to Stick onto the surface.
    Where it's blue you know it's flat, where It isn't you know that u have a depression.

      It's called cyanide leaching or gold cyanidation. You use cyanide to extract gold or other precious metals from minerals with low content of said metals. Its use in mining often causes vast damage to the environment, but it works because it's relatively easy to extract the metals from the solution. So I guess it should work with circuit boards, too.
