@DrLsw NO, it wouldn't be cost effective 50 g of 99,9% silver nitrate contain only 31,76 g? of pure silver. currently 1g of pure silver sells for 1,0787 dollars, which means that your 50g of nitrate will only yield 34,26 dollars worth of silver metal.

if i bought 50? grams of silver nitrate for 80$ would it be cost effective to refine it?

@littlebitsick it may work, although the amount of silver is very small. feel free to experiment and document it. maybe you would want to post it?

i have some old surface mount solder paste, containing 3% silver, the rest is made up with Tin, bismuth and some flux to? aid flowing. Do you think this method would work on the paste i have? im thinking of doing a little experiment

@Squish120 thank you for answering some questions over here at the comments page. i made this video and others mainly to share knowledge with other people who are interested. back when? i was searching for info i found little, so i want to contribute to improvement of that. i did not post videos lately mainly because of lack of time, but i still have some thing coockin', which will come out when i find the time for it.

@NytingGayle Not much point refining the copper due to its value, but it can be done the same way. With your spent solution of copper nitrate, add a clean piece of steel and copper will plate out. Then you can use the same electrolysis method with copper - usually as copper sulfate? because its cheaper and plate pure copper, very difficult to melt though without creating oxides

@chessmaster001 Yes it'll work with gold but not a practical method of refining - search for? the activity series of metals to explain it

Your a legend for showing this! I'm in the GRF too, but what you've presented is an incredibly practical small method for silver cell - I made one very similar? and worked great. Finished with 12.665 grams 99.9% silver. This makes the most beautiful bars when cast, and leaves not a trace of oxides in the melting dish. To answer the q's below, I reuse my copper tube as its very difficult to get all traces of silver off it, so I use it again and it'll fall off when more silver builds up.
By: chessmaster001. on 07 Jan 12, 16:18:04
Two? questions, one - can you reuse the same copper tube? and two - does this work with gold?

I see in comments that you say copper nitrate? is unwanted. But is there a way to refine copper?
By: Aranwulfr. on 30 Nov 11, 02:52:58
can? the silver nitrate be re-used?

whats the concentration of the nitric acid? in the beginning steps when dissolving the silver particles?
By: demnlordd666. on 26 Oct 11, 11:35:06
cool vid, watching the crystals grow is fasinating.? I have some I will try to refine like this. If ya do it in larger batches does the crystal structure come out larger or is it stll small and fern like? would be nice to get some meaty sized crystals to display
By: jaws99099. on 06 Sep 11, 21:18:41
How do you get the rest of the silver out of the nitric/silver/copper solution? You mentioned to keep the material because? it still contains silver.
By: fedaikn. on 19 Aug 11, 05:18:52
@666Pockets666 smash it up, really fine. separate the silver out of the crushed rock by panning in water (like the gold diggers do). melt the silver that you collect. the lump of silver? can the be refined through the same principle, using the same steps as explained in this video
By: lexichronicle2. on 17 Aug 11, 23:58:04
@666Pockets666 It'd be interesting to watch you smash it up and dissolve it, make a video if you do. There is a chemistry guy from a forum I'm on also posting on here, called 'ReactionFactory'. If you do a search for 'Isolation of Uranium Yellowcake from Ore' up in the toob search bar, you'll find him using the same dissolving method to score some uranium from a big? lump of rock.
By: lexichronicle2. on 17 Aug 11, 23:54:41
@666Pockets666 You could smash it up, preferably to dust (but lumps will do), dump it into a bucket, pour over a lot of cheap concentrated hydrochloric acid (sold for brick cleaning etc) and it will likely? dissolve most of the rock. The silver won't dissolve however, so you can pour the solution off and save the small amount of solid. Then use the ideas in the videos up on here to refine that blob. I have seen 205l drums of hydrochloric sell for only a few pounds, because it's hazardous waste

I have a 17 pound boulder containing mostly native silver. If I get it broken up? is there a way to refine it using electrolisis?
By: snapsalot. on 13 Aug 11, 11:49:39
@coultas6913 silver plate has such a miniscule ammount? of silver you are wasting your time.
By: shaysarig10. on 15 Jul 11, 04:56:02
@fedaikn *So? where can I find an instructions for this amount of silver ???(10kg)
By: fedaikn. on 14 Jul 11, 12:50:52
@shaysarig10 *no, it is not suitable for 10 kg *no, you cannot use the silver nitrate from the first step since it is much too contaminated . you need to prepare a new batch of silver nitrate....how?? -search the comments below
By: shaysarig10. on 14 Jul 11, 05:21:19
*Those the electrolyte system that you show on the movie is suitable for all amount of refined silver (for exampale 10kilo)? ??? *In the last part of the process you are doing the silver electrolysis with silver nitrate solution,can it be done with the silver nitrate that we creat in the first part of process???

ok, so I heated up the jar with the nitric acid and the sterling silver and now it`s almost completely dissolved. I may have to add a little more acid. But around the sides of the jar there`s white and blue crystalls. I presume the white crystals are? silver nitrate, and the blue crystals are copper nitrate. Should I scrape this off back into the solution? Should I filter when I pour the solution into a clean glass and add distilled water?
By: doinen. on 08 Jul 11, 22:37:44
ok so noww, now I put the acid thing in the bottle along with some silwer. but i didnt heat it. only put the jar with the acid and silver in a pot thingy with hot water witch is now cold and I am drunk. because i know I fucked up but there was a party so i just left it because i didn`t know what else I cold do my girlfriend just left me so what the hell. dont worry i was sober when? i did this and wore gasmask . tomorrow i will check the jar and heat it if there are no objections here.
By: spacebrdcst. on 08 Jul 11, 20:28:43
@fedaikn To be honest, I let my solution to dry? first... then I added water, small portions at a time until I could see no more crystals in the container.... Thanks for the your Help...
