When I worked in the gold room in a mine in Australia we would electrowin the gold from the eluate solution onto a stainless steel mesh anode. Once a week we would pull out the cathodes out and we would Gerni off the gold. It pretty well looked the same as your precipitated gold. We would vacuum the excess water of and then mix in fluxes and then smelt it. I like watching your stuff your cell is like a mini version of what we did eccept the gold we electrowinned was from out of the eluate solution.

Why not using a high purity gold cathode. Less Titanium contamination. Or even using a gold bowl, needs maybe 1kg of Gold, depending the size. Doesn't have to look pretty, just thight and stable. Casting or asking your goldsmith friends👍🏻

Absolutely BRILLIANT work, S! Great nodularisation, makes for easier peeling from the titanium I'd bet. I think you should move to this method. Even with inquarted gold, I'd bet you could get higher purity yields with Ag/Cu byproducts to be collected at the bottom of the beaker. Suggestions/Ideas: 1. A titanium sleeve to hug the inside circumference of the beaker [slight spring tension] with the anode bar suspended in the centre. 2. A silicone lid to fit the beaker to reflux the HCl [prevent loss through evaporation. 3. Perhaps an Arduino to control heating to maintain the 140F temperature. Thanks for the great electroforming content! Greetings to you n family from Hopkinsville, Ky! [Yes, I thought "shark tooth" as well, lol.]

@ut000bs 4 месяца назад
As the gold atoms leave the anode bar they "etch" out the crystalline structure that actually makes up the bar. This allows the light to difuse all over the place and show you the structure you cannot see otherwise. Yes, that structure is always there but your eyes fool you because the surface is usually smooth and the light has no bevels to reflect off of. I do love physics. I bet that tooth looks amazing under good magnification. Another winner, Sr. I'm thinking Mrs. Sreetips probably took possession ASAP.

Question about free hydrochloric acid and the evaporation issue. (I'm guessing distilled water was used in that solution.) How critical is that 10% free hydrochloric acid? Does it get "used up" in the reaction? Would that have been water evaporating and not the acid? Also, something else random: the stock pot has been having certain issues. Maybe consider starting a new one next time instead of adding your leftovers from the last one. Dry out your left overs and keep it stashed somewhere to mess with on a later date. Thanks for sharing your play time with us ;)

If you want to grow nice fairly big crystals, I recommend to reduce the surface area of the cathode to a pretty small size, maybe half a square inch. As optimum I suggest a high purity gold cathode in irregular shape to give the cathode some prefered accumulating points. I think nice and fairly big gold crystals would sell pretty well on your ebay

@golder70
@golder70 4 месяца назад
Some observstions and comments if allowed: 1) The cell has a charge parity. For every Au-ion that leaves the Anode into the electrolyte an Au-ion attaches to the cathode by aquiring electrons out of the electrolyt in absolute the same moment. The question of the distance between the electrodes is inferior as long the conductivity (aka concentration of electrolyte = 1/ resistance) and the Amps and Volts are high. 2) I would not use the stir-bar. Any impurities get agitated in the electrolyte and like an old rug, the gold sponge at the cathode catches those and the growing gold crystals enclose them in the sponge. By not agitating zhe fluid the impurities just sedimenting down under the anode an stay there. One more reason to evaluate the gold cell similar to the silver cell. I even think its not necessary to heat the cell as long as you got time on your side as with the silver.

@MickTee2k
@MickTee2k 4 месяца назад
Well, yes. The gold from the anode goes into solution. Gold from the solution is deposited onto the cathode.
@sreetips
@sreetips 4 месяца назад
Most of the gold comes from the 10 ounce anode bar as it dissolves from the current flow. But some of the gold from the 90.2g in the electrolyte will get deposited on the cathode. The gold in the electrolyte becomes slowly depleted as the cell operates.
@JP-kb5ng
@JP-kb5ng 4 месяца назад
@@sreetips I'm curious about that. Theoretically (in my mind) it should be a one-for-one molecular exchange and no depletion of the solution should occur. Your yield recovery mass of the chloroauric should be exactly what you dissolved into it initially - hopefully we will see in Part 3.
@sreetips
@sreetips 4 месяца назад
The gold in the electrolyte, and the gold coming off the anode are identical. The cathode can’t discriminate which is which. So invariably, some of the gold from the solution will get deposited as the cell operates. Sort of like collateral damage. I’d guess that about 20 grams of gold on that cathode came from the electrolyte.
@JP-kb5ng
@JP-kb5ng 4 месяца назад
@@sreetips But in theory at least every electron coming off the anode knocks loose one atom of gold into solution, while one atom of gold is plated onto the cathode from solution. I don't doubt that there are losses but I would expect them to be negligible, in the sub-gram range. Very interested to see what you recover when you precipitate out the solution, and how the final mass balances between the anode, cathode, and solution.

Try like a silver cell, you can use gold (shark tooth) left over from the experiment, add rings, gold bracelets to your basket.

Right now, the masses are still clueless about gold. Their faith in paper remains high despite the fact that paper is collapsing in value. Very few understand that hoarding stacks of paper is foolish (insanity). Holding savings in gold (and silver) is for the wise. But this is slowly changing. We used to find hand fulls of scrap gold every weekend just ten years ago. But it’s getting harder to find as folks begin to wake up to the scam of the money printers. You can’t measure anything’s true value in paper dollars because they can, and do, print “without limit”. Therefore, measuring value in dollars is insanity. It all boils down to this: money printing is insanity. The only way to protect your savings is to hold savings in real money, gold and silver.

When you purify the bar by electrolysis you have to collect the impurities that were in that bar somewhere; do they end up in the gold chloride electrolyte or did they fall off the cathode and get picked up by the stirred solution and end up on the rough surface of the gold? When you purify the silver nitrate you have a filter between the electrolyte and the anode.

Sreetips -- I have a question. When there is a loss of gold after processing, what accounts for the loss of gold? Evaporation (mollucules in vapor)? Splashes of gold in solution? Gold left behind in paper filters? Fine gold disolved in waste solution poured off? I think in a recent video you had like 7 grams of gold missing after processing (I might be wrong, I can't remember exactly). Do you know where / how the gold is being lost?

All the above. There are losses along the way. Minimizing them will depend on the skill and technique use by the refiner. Also, l probably made an error when sorting the karat scrap. Threw in a piece that was plated or gold filled by mistake. That can throw the yield off

@@sreetips Ahh I see. If it was an actual processing loss, rather than just a sorting mistake, then you are likely to recover it later on from the gold refining waste liquids and/or your saved paper filters. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. I love all your videos!

Nice find. I paid $65 about twelve years ago. Found it on gesswein.com but they sold out after I recommended them in a video a few years back.

No, I use trial and error also. But the book is very helpful. For example, I wouldn’t know the parameters to operate the gold cell without the book.

Hi Sreetips, just a quick question regarding cementation of silver from waste solutions. If there is any gold still in solution will it cement out with the silver and what is the best way to make sure other than the stannus test.
@sreetips
@sreetips 4 месяца назад
Yes, boiling nitric will put a little gold in solution. But it’s usually just a trace and not worth trying to recover. If there’s gold in solution with silver then I just cement it out on copper with the silver. Melt the cement silver (with the small amount of gold in it) and run it through my silver cell. In the cell, the gold will get trapped in the anode filter because it’s insoluble. Then I recover the gold when I process the anode filters for the precious metals that they contain.
