Using Chemistry to Refine Gold - Gold Filled Scrap

Here is my latest video on the process I use to RECOVER gold from gold filled watch cases and gold filled jewelry, then I REFINE the recovered gold to a high purity.

http://youtu.be/iMfolFC0Rr8 is a good link-


I get "no videos are currently available"

Having some familiarity with the classical processes as documented by Georgius Agricola in "De Re Metallica" (and later authors), I look forward to viewing your procedures...

that was very well done, I'm glad you went to all that trouble to make it, as I found that quite interesting

Yes, well done. Appreciate the added emphasis on safety, specific mention of using fume hood & not improperly disposing of your liquid byproducts.

kadriver- what did you do with the watch movements? Broken or not- let me know- I wouldn't mind getting them for tinkering on!

Excellent video.

1. I'd hate to be Gold if that's what happens

2. Aren't the exquisite watches worth more ?
