In this video I show where my mercury came from.
See me extracting mercury from the ore here: • Video
I forgot to mention that I only recently got the mercury back from a family member who was keeping it so little kid me didn't play with it too much.

At the end of this video I was using a UV lamp to test for the presence of mercury since mercury vapor is very good at stopping the light produced by the lamp; During that I discovered that Cinnabar is flammable! It burns almost like sulfur, which makes sense being that upon heating cinnabar releases mercury and sulfur vapor.

"Where did I get my mercury?" Well that's an interesting story for me. I was metal detecting in the Sierras near an old hydraulic mine and I located a rusted "tank" that at first seemed like an old propane tank until I looked closer. It turns out that this "tank" was an Almaden Quicksilver Mines 76 pound mercury carboy. And it also turns out that it was the miners recovery flask! It contained three pounds of mercury and approximately 0.65 troy ounces of gold! I used the nitric acid process to recover it. Amazing find from my point of view!

I was moved while watching your video Cody. My family in the past were mercury miners. Pretty much 2 generations a long time ago died from mercury poisoning. I've been to a few sites where my ansetors lived, and the smelter you showed was a little primitive but still a lot was still the same. My family back then were used as slaves pretty much to dig the cinnabar and refine it. Everytime when we would go prosect for gold in the rivers in California sometimes we would get mercury in the sluice box it remind me my family might have produced it. I have saved a good portion just for personal reasons. Good video Cody.

Dental amalgams. I remember back in the 90's when I told my dentist to remove all my amalgams and replace them with composite fillings. The dentist thought I was crazy. Meanwhile, most dentists no longer use the mercury amalgam fillings. You should have asked if he had an amalgamator. Could be very useful for you.
@yvrelna
@yvrelna 7 лет назад
electronicsNmore Your dentist is right that you're crazy. As long as the amalgam filling isn't having any other issues (e.g. leaks, decay, cracks), there is really no medical reason to replace dental amalgams. Some people may have cosmetic reasons to replace fillings that are in frontal teeth with a less visible tooth-colored filling, but the drawbacks have to be considered carefully. It's actually been shown that replacing dental amalgam actually releases some mercury vapor (the dangerous type of mercury), so keeping the amalgam is actually safer than replacing them if you're concerned about mercury. In any case, unless you have mercury allergy, the amount of mercury released from amalgam during its lifetime and on replacement is much smaller than the dosage that you would need to be concerned about even if all your teeth are amalgam fillings. Additionally, every time dentists opens up a filling, they always have to drill down through parts of the healthy teeth as well. This is why it's bad to unnecessarily reopen a filling, as it weakens the healthy teeth structure every time they do it. If you have a dentist that told you to replace a well functioning amalgam fillings, they are not acting in your best interest.
@electronicsNmore
@electronicsNmore 7 лет назад
yvrelna I know all about dental work. I have 2 friends that are dentists. I even have dental related videos on my channel. The best thing you can do for your health, is to remove the fillings. The dentist was wrong. Mercury has no place in the human body. Chewing on food gives off mercury vapor. When drilling away the old amalgams, it is done with suction very close to the tooth to remove any vapors, and you also breathe through your nose while it's done. Look at my teeth and let me know if you still think I'm crazy. Plenty of composite fillings, but no amalgams, caps, crowns or veneers. i1063.photobucket.com/albums/t507/lookingfordbn/SNV31573_zpsszsc1qrc.jpg

I once found a large cinnabar deposit here in Northern California, on the east side of Table Mountain, just north of the Oroville Dam (an earthfill dam, and the tallest dam in the U.S.) On the north side of Table Mountain is a working diamond mine. Friends asked me why I didn't stake a claim on it. I was a gold miner with no interest in mining cinnabar. -- In the mid to late 1800's miners would build mercury traps across rivers to catch the gold. You can still easily find pockets of mercury along the banks of the rivers. A lot of old miners died burning the quicksilver off their gold in their cabins. Smarter ones would put their amalgamated gold in a hollowed potato, set it on a shovel in their camp fire, and take a walk "up wind" for awhile.

Mercury is extremely toxic, causes mental retardation and death even from a small exposure, be careful with it!
@squidwardDK
@squidwardDK 5 лет назад
It is toxic. If you inhale the vapours. Playing with metallic mercury (maybe thrilled by the myth that it "isn't harmful"), spilling some of it, or breaking a thermometer, then maybe trying to vacuum it up - these are classical ways of getting exposed to a lot of mercury. There are case stories of families who got mercury poisoning after living a few weeks in a house with rather small amounts of mercury spill. The fact that you misspell dimethylmercury hints that you know very little about it. Did you know that in your body, some of the metallic mercury will inevitably be turned into organic mercury (and also vice versa). Gut bacteria can do this. Once it is in your system, it does not remain metallic mercury.
@thedankside2552
@thedankside2552 5 лет назад
squidwardDK obviously it isn’t safe to play with mercury, but elemental mercury can be stored well relatively easily the only real danger are the vapors and as long as your container is air tight(I suggest putting your airtight mercury container inside another airtight container).

@angolin9352

Humans have burned coal in their own homes for hundreds if not thousands of years. Why is this only now causing mercury toxicity, when people in the past had much more direct and frequent exposure to mercury than they do today?
@angolin9352
@angolin9352 6 лет назад
There are more sources of mercury exposure today, but more sources =/= more exposure. If you get exposed to, say, 10g/day of CO from one thing in you house, but get rid of it and replace it with 5 things that expose to you 1g/day each, you've had a net loss in CO exposure. These numbers are all purely hypothetical, but it illustrates a mathematical truth that sometimes (x*y) < z. If coal contains so much mercury, then people in the past (especially in cold areas) would have had stronger symptoms of mercury toxicity than people today, because modern coal power plants 1) have air scrubbers, and 2) are typically far away from your home ad opposed to, you now - INSIDE it. A 10m x 10m x 10m cube is not 10x the volume of a 1m cube, it's 1000x the volume of a 1m cube because you're expanding all 3 dimensions at once. That's a hell of a lot of dispersal. CFL bulbs do not release mercury, except when they leak (which destroys the bulb) or when they blow (which causes a leak). In either case, it is such a miniscule amount of Hg that, despite what people tell you, you can put in the trash without breaking US federal or state law. Most municipalities allow it too. I know from experience that these fuckers last awhile, I've gone a year without a single CFB inside my house blow, and I use them for all of my lights. Vaccines still have not been linked to mercury toxicity or autism. You also seem to misunderstand how bioaccumulation works. When one animal consumes another animal, it consumes more or less the entire chemical composition of the animal. Depending on the animal's diet, this can be minimal (cows, chicken) or relatively high (some sea fish). When one animal gives birth to another, only a small amount of mercury in blood is transferred, and it's not the blood mercury you need to concern yourself with - It's what's accumulated in the fatty tissues, which the baby doesn't need to worry about unless the mother somehow eats herself, but doesn't kill the baby and still allows it to be born as normal. This small amount might affect prenatal development (I'm not an expert on prenatal development, but you still haven't proven that people are exposed to more mercury than they have been in the past, so we'll call this even until more evidence is brought up), but after the baby is born it will grow rapidly and the small amount of mercury it has received will be such a minor amount in comparison to its body size and weight that, percentage-wise, it has less mercury in its body than the mother. In the future, before replying with "omg. Moron." to polite request to explain the verbal diarrhea you post, you should either explain your position politely or admit that you have no idea of what you're talking about. You just might look like less of an "omg. Moron." yourself if you take that route. Just before I posted this, I decided to look up the mercury content of coal. My first search result claimed that 80% of coal contained less than .25ppm of mercury, which is absolutely miniscule, and that the mercury emitted by coal plants is mostly elemental mercury, which isn't all that bad when compared to the things people think of when they think of mercury toxicity. Since it's past 6AM and you haven't been terribly effective at proving your point, I'll only bother digging up more sources if it seems necessary to continue this discussion.
