We create a vortex in a cone bottom tank filled with water and enough hydrogen peroxide to clean sulfide coatings and keep the mercury from sickening. If there is any sign of oil we pre soak the sands in lye.
We don't have any mercury on our claim so we haven't had to deal with it. When we were dredging some days we had 1/2 to 1 once globs at the end of the day we just used a retort. We never cleaned the "sickened" mercury we just kept it in a jar in the garage. My old partner has it still. I have a friend with a hard rock mine. He is getting good specimins. He has a lot of micro gold that he is having a hard time with. I think he would be very interested in your set up do you have any pictures or the source of the cone bottom tank you are using. And could you describe the process a little more like what steps you?
There really is no secret recipe to it. I was referring to what is used for doing the mixing. The retorting is where the real health issues are of a concern.

I really love that page Reed. I've had it bookmarked since i I found it a couple of years ago now and would have loved the chance to pick his brain from time to time. He had a way of explaining things that anyone could understand and always stressed safety.
You can so say it. Like any action you should consider the consequences before acting...
What about the part where I'm an American and can say what I want?
Dans right! just look at what happened in Ferguson , Misery when that officer shot that gang member/ thief ! look what happened all over the States because of it!!! and from what ive read , over and over and over....................Id of had todo the samething officer Wilson did for self defense. Mike Brown was/is a very big guy!Yes Goldwasher, you are an American and so am I. We enjoy the RIGHT of Freedom of speech which is the first right of every American...however...
Having the RIGHT to say whatever you want does NOT relieve you of the CONSEQUENCE of saying it!
