Gold ? hopefully !

 

[Oregon Viking]

I was given 2.2kg of floor sweeps when I purchased a refinery. I sifted large, medium, and then finer mesh.
There was 1100 grams of fine material.
I know there's alot of silver in the sweeps as I was putting it in.
Panning isn't my daily routine 😒

do you have any classifiers ? Get it all the same size gold always wins. Silver ? dunno.....

 

[Puff the Tragic Wagon]

HELP ME PLEASE!
Get the gang plank out, blind fold me, and give me a quick reality check.

Why am I responding to a guy that believes tree bark is the symbols to the hidden treasure vaults.
OK I get the turtles are.....

You got too close and hung around too long, Pepper. Always wear your shower shoes when dealing with this one.

Here ya go, this’ll help. 👍

I see a treasure map. Look to the left, close one eye look right... stand on your head and blink three times...

No offense but even though he talks crazy I wouldn't make fun of him, you never know his circumstances he could be really ill.

Well I didn't buy it, if I did I would have to secretly ship it to RC, I can see it now.... WTF Is this ??

 

[Pick_axe]

Do you mean mash instead of wash?

A friend that moved used to host brewing parties. It seemed to recruit him help. Including a better experienced brewer.
i was brewing wine at the time and when my friend showed more interest in it I kind of sidled away and we talked about his beer brewing more.

Nope. Mash is both a verb and a noun. It usually involves malted grain. A wash is just sugar, water and yeast.

Hard to say if that's gold just from a photo, here's trick or two you can try before trying to melt it...
Take that pan out into the sunlight, look at the "gold" and then shade it with your hand, if it changes color/shade it's not gold, gold will look exactly the same in sunlight and shade, it has a glow of it's own.
Gold as most know is malleable, so take some of the "gold" and put it on a hard surface then try flattening it out with a hammer, if it flattens out and doesn't turn into finer powder it very likely could be gold.

I might do some wet testing tomorrow.
HCI first then some Nitric after a good rinse.

Petrified wood I believe.

 

[Oregon Viking]

Rocks from the latest tumbling session, I knew they weren't like some of the beauty's I have, but these will look good in planters.... with plants also of course.

Good morning!☕️ A nice piece of pet wood. Send it to me and I’ll make you something. This acorn is pet wood.

Or maybe just a couple of cabochons.
