This was awesome to watch, My wife and i just found out that we are having twin boys coming in late July. this would be amazing to be able to do. Great video and congratulations to the parents of the new twins.

[@LithicMetals]

Wow! Congratulations, Tank! That's amazing news!! July is coming up quick, hope you're resting up! 😁

A casting at 2:30 am? Holy cruft. To be on standby that whole time? Nuts. This is how you create a brand -- bravo. What an upstanding thing to do

[@agusindra8186]

[@PaulWalley-t1u]

Your work is immaculate and I appreciate that. I would like to try it as a hobby. My question is, what do you do with the refined gold? Do you stack it or sell it, if so where?

[@rebeccaelliott1414]

i can’t help but think every time i hear your voice i picture Michael Keaton as Batman…..love your videos Jeff!

[@LithicMetals]

I'm so glad you enjoy them, Rebecca. I appreciate hearing it! 😁

[@feilox]

what brand are those torches?

[@bedeckt]

Hi! I have never worked with metals before, and have a few questions. Every time i watch a Video of someone melting metal in like blacksmiths or steel-cooks (as we say in germany), the container that they use for melting always has a dark / black crust that seems rough and uneven. My Questions: Do any metals get stuck on the container sides when poured out, or does it not stick at all and pours completely? Because now i see your containers are clean and seem fresh. Or do you discard them after use?

[@krullmeister]

Seen alot of videos of people pounding and reshaping the gold bars some after the pour while semi hot I guess? thought about the sharp looking edges on one of the bars and small infant wanting maybe to play with their gold

[@sebouhakharjalian6707]

True beauties. Jeff sorry for asking how much these two small bars weigh.

[@LithicMetals]

These are 1/2oz bars. 😁

[@KayBeeStew]

Oooooh! I caught sight of a nice beard!! May we see you in an upcoming video please? Nice to have a face behind that killer voice!

[@KevinSorbo.]

Im sure im not the first to comment this but you really killed this video... The gold standard

[@LithicMetals]

I appreciate you saying so! 😁

[@scottnunnemaker5209]

How long could you leave gold in solution? Like could I make gallons of gold solution over a period of a year and process it all back into gold at the end of the year?

[@CuSTACKS]

Do you glaze dish with borax first? Do you use any acid to clean off contamination after you pour into ingot?

[@LithicMetals]

Definitely. If you don't glaze the dish, the gold will stick right to it. If there is glaze of the bar, I'd give it a bath in hot sulfuric acid. Otherwise, just water! 😁

[@WonderboyWDE]

Ok so I’m a complete newbie on pouring and stamping. All, and I mean ALL, I know about melting, pouring and stamping has been learned from watching videos on KZbin as part of a project I’m doing with my nephew. Question we have that I can’t find an answer to…is it better to stamp after your bar or coin has fully cooled or could you do it while it’s still warm? We are doing this as part of his 4th grade science project (there’s a $50 dollar gift card the local pizza and burger joint on the line here!). My thinking is when the metal is warm it would better receive the stamp. But I can’t really find a solid answer to that. Any help is appreciated.

[@LithicMetals]

Don't do it while it's hot. The metal is plenty soft enough to strike a mark while it's cold. Good luck on the project!

[@WonderboyWDE]

@@LithicMetals awesome and thank you! I’m following the master’s orders on this and we are doing a reverse stamp if you will. Engraving some steel so that it leaves a raised stamp on the final bars and coins. I only got “hired” for this because my sister doesn’t trust a 9 year old with MAPGAS and hot metal for some reason. Even though I tend to remember her welding farm equipment with Dad when she was about his age.

[@tylertuttle2127]

Random question, but do you know if you have to register your logo on your bars? Thank you

[@LithicMetals]

It's always best to protect your mark, but there's no law to do so. You just want to make sure you aren't stepping on anyone else's trademarks before you use them.

[@tylertuttle2127]

[@Jimmy_Jones]

So was the request to make it at the same time as the birth? Why not in advanced? Just for the meaning?

[@frantiseklaluch6605]

Hello Jeff, I hope, I will do something like that for my kids and their mother (aka my wife). Off topic: you have beard? Somehow in my head you are smoothly shaved, probably because of smooth voice... 😀

[@LithicMetals]

Lol, the beard comes and goes. 😁

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

how much borax do you use per 16 g bar.

[@LithicMetals]

Just a sprinkle to coat the dish so the gold doesn't stick. Other than that, there's not much need. 🙂

[@greedygringoprospecting6941]

@@LithicMetals the borax refines gold half way decent. me california. be out this weekend. see if u can find some gold. wish i had my buddies luck. have a good day

[@LithicMetals]

@@greedygringoprospecting6941 actually borax doesn't really refine gold. It traps the oxides that form at the surface, and it can also prevent oxides from forming because it can create a barrier against oxygen exposure... but it doesn't remove the cause of the oxides. To do that, it has to be chemically refined. But with clean pure gold, like I was using here, there is no need for borax because there is no contamination. 🙂

[@CuSTACKS]

​@@LithicMetals even though you used 999 Au and a small amount to glaze the dish do you need to drop the bar intoacid or some kind of solution to remove the borax contamination?

[@quinterod1000]

Questions I have lots of memory chips I would like to refine can you help

[@riccardosimionato2782]

how can I work with you? we need your help to refine here at home..

[@LithicMetals]

I don't recommend that you refine precious metals at home.

[@scrapyardprospecting3855]

Very nice!!! But I prefer the natural gold as it comes from nature. The shapes and colors that u find it in to me I find more interesting. Natural art I guess.
