The mere fact that most of this is done outdoors mitigates the exposure to vapors. However, since you are the chemical afficionado, do share your expert alternative method. Did you take note of the significant duration of time it took to complete this recovery, accounting for very low volumes of acid used for digestion and dissolution?

@@Seeing_Red Yes, it’s outside. Where you have no control over where those toxic fumes end up. The proper way to do this is under a vapor hood that captures those toxic fumes so you’re not poisoning your neighbors or someone walking/driving by. The fact that it takes longer only means you’re pumping out toxic gases for a longer period. So you know you’re poisoning your house, your yard and exposing your neighbors and anyone walking by with toxic fumes… and all you do is try to excuse it with make-believe “science”. How disgusting.

If you are going to run those round connectors in a Sulfuric acid stripping cell, I suggest you try to remove the inner plastic bits by punching them out. The sulfuric acid cannot reach past the plastic. I do believe the metal parts are completely plated in gold. You may be missing recovering a lot of gold unless you make sure all metal parts are exposed.

@@andromeda1892 I haven't used a stripping cell in a couple of years, but a good way to do it I think is to get some copper wire and string the hollow connectors on them and twist the wire tight for a good connection. Then just dip them in and turn on the juice. The larger pieces I take a copper clip and connect it to the piece and then dip it in and turn on the juice. all really small parts I put into a copper mesh basket, pack them in tight and then dip the entire basket into the acid.
