FORMATION OF GOLD FROM MERCURY For years man has tried to make gold and platinum from base metals. Has anyone been successful? Logic would dictate the answer is no. However, I would like to present a challenging case. In order to accomplish such, I offer laboratory procedures wherein one Gan synthetically produce precious metals on a macro scale. No black boxes, no secret processes -- just simple laboratory procedures. The process that I speak of encompasses the conversion of mercury to gold and platinum. There does exists an irony to this subject, for if you research the history of the mining industry you will find that such techniques have been utilized without the implementors knowing that they were making their precious metals in lieu of reclaiming them from Mother Nature! LOW LEVEL
PRODUCTION OF Au & PT FROM HG An experimental procedure was established in 1995 to determine if Pt could be formed from Hg utilizing technologies from the non?standard mining metallurgical industry. HISTORY In a communication with Mr. Mike Thompson in 1993 he purported a new process in the recovery of platinum from a geological deposit that he was working on in Baja Mexico. The following paragraph describes in general his findings. In a metallurgical text, it was reported that cyanide was slow to cause the dissolution of platinum in its metallic form. In an attempt to accelerate this, it was suggested that if one were to make the compound BrCN the dissolution factor would be accelerated. To accomplish such one could easily produce their own BrCN by a simple method of electrolyzing NaCN and NaBr. Mr. Thompson went through the process of doing such and used new compound to leach a sample of mineral. The results were phenomenal. He physically recovered metallic platinum and gold after the process. However, with my interjection, I asked Mr. Thompson to repeat the process and exclude the mineral. That is to say, I asked him to prepare his new BrCN compound and extract and attempt to extract the same gold and platinum from the new solution -- without the interference of mineral contamination. The results were the same. He recovered the approximate amount of Pt and Au from just making the solution without interference of mineral. Now one would say that this in itself is nowhere scientifically conclusive. With this I will agree. But there is more. This same test has been repeated by others throughout the United States with success. Accepting the potentials that cross contamination of starting material and other facets could be involved I only suggest that one attempt the test for themselves, In another point in the mining history of the United States I found another example of transmutation of processes in lieu of recovery. This came shortly after the turn of the century when miners would use mercury amalgams for the process procedures in the recovery of precious metals. It is a well known fact that Hg will wet, or amalgam Au. Although, Crookes came up with a procedure that if you excited Hg with Na metal, it would then amalgam Pt. To accomplish such a feat, miners would take their Hg and place it over a wood fire and slowly add sodium metal to the now hot Hg. This would cause a harden Hg matt which was then placed in stamp mills (a mechanical procedure utilized at that time to pulverize mineral) to amalgam not only the Au and Ag but also Pt. Now as luck would have it, not only was Pt found in the new process, but an increased level of Au was also noted. To make my point, try analyzing
the Pt and Au levels in Hg after it has been arnalgamed with Na
