How to Recover GOLD from electronics fingers cell phone boards & pins with HCL and Air Easily!

[@gkeith64]

Well, I have about 100 lbs of boards now, im going to start removing the gold, thank brother, your videos have been inspirational

[@kenayala111]

very nice and informative video, i like that bubbler method for reducing the likelyhood of gold loss.

[@ScottBEnigmatica]

I made this bucket method per your specifications and it's been much better that using the peroxide diluting all the acid. Keep up having all my answers before I even have to ask the question. It's very appreciated

[@peterflores6233]

Super cool ty for this!! P.S. Please don't stop the vids and scrapping, you rock!!!

[@sharonkennedy5909]

I like your videos! To the point and VERY informative with a good and simple plan AND you are easy to listen to! BUT ... your garage does need a good cleaning!!!...lol...I can see how Gold Fever takes over! Who wants to clean anything ...BUT GOLD!!! Thank You!

[@EvilSearchEngine]

Moose, this vid was awesome. I love your logical step by step explanations.

[@radubeldea1514]

hi moose. i want to say that you are a genius. i like that you explain all the things that you do and you give very good advices. i am new in this but you inspired me a lot. i still have to learn much more things but you are great man. thanks for all the videos

[@MoxkyBashwell]

Moose, i enjoy this a great deal, seeing a bag of gold plated material is nice, but watching you break it all down is exciting. i just cannot wait to watch you do some gold smelting!

[@martinvanzyl747]

Thanks for another great video. So I decided to make my own bubler along the same lines as yours, but thanks to your advice, decided not to use nylon ties. Instead I just drilled a lot of small holes through a plastic disk, then threaded the tube up and down through it. Works really well.

[@moosescrapper5928]

sweet!

[@H4JI]

So for plated pins, the filter catches the particles? Thanks!

[@mredd2nd]

Having a ball watching Moose. Got a couple of boxes of motherboards I picked up cheap ripped the coolers off and smelted then down into ingots now for the gold and just tuben around seeing whats out there without getting meself arrested for buying some stuff that I am not supposed to have(some chemicals are not good) so far your approach is for me approachable and understandable. I actually wrote an email to a bloke who had a website backyard chemistry one or two beer processes but unfortunately I got a reply from a mate of his saying he was no longer available due to a mishap in his lab miscalculated the process of beer perhaps lol. Keep up the good work. Ron bloke

[@moosescrapper5928]

lol, there are all kinds out there. Just trying to keep it real. Thanks!

[@mullins719]

I put the solution and pins on my grill and heating them up. It seems to be working better. I read some other comments of urs. Thanks so much I'm having fun so far. Its exciting.

[@kleetus92]

I just realized you need one small upgrade for your bucket... you need a set of holes at the top, or near the top around the sides/ Why? So you can get actual fluid flow through the bucket. If you just put air in the bottom, and let it bubble, the air will carry some acid up. The problem comes in when the air can't carry any more acid up because the liquid has no place to go... Think like the undergravel filter in an aquarium when the water is low. Yeah the bubbles will still go up but there's no place to carry the water to. So, by putting some holes in the sides of the bucket as high as practically possible with whatever liquid level you have, the air can then pump the acid through the fingers, and then out the sides and then actually circulate the fluid vs just aerating it. Basically it means it will increase the efficiency and speed because it's constantly pulling fresh acid through the fingers. Good video!

[@freeburds]

Haven't started scraping but your videos are awesome to watch. I am excited to try this! Keep up the great work!

[@moosescrapper5928]

Thanks!

[@7A7ER]

Great Video! Thanks for the tips, I have a lot of old 486s to use these methods on.

[@everettpulver9101]

I think I mixed the hcl + bleach solution with some hcl + peroxide solution together....can I still precipitate the gold out with sodium metabisulfite? Thank you

[@timbenzel1751]

Hey Moose Scrapper. Im new to gold recovery as a hobby I can make a few extra bucks with and just wanted you to know that I really appreciate the wisdom you share on the subject. I take this very seriously and Im always extra cautious. You have many good videos that I have watched multiple times and I always get the same results you do when I follow your directions. I also found Originalfeets thanks to you who also has some good videos. Just wanted to say thank you and looking forward to future videos on the subject.

[@moosescrapper5928]

Glad to be able to help out! And Feets cracks me up.

[@SanMateoPack458]

Thanks Moose! You video makes it seem so easy, was it really? I am looking to remove some board gold to salvage for the flake only to "salt" my scouts gold panning boxes, would this work? I would love you to message me with your recipe! Plinker Don

[@truthseeker1623]

Ta for a very interesting video which I have watched twice now and still very good. keep going your doing me and others a very good class.

[@f1x1tright]

Looks good man really enjoy the videos and the air looks to work great!

[@oipunk99]

Great video, thanks for uploading. Do you have any experience with recovering the remaining gold from the trimmed chip? I got a big box of trimmed memory modules I'd hate to just throw away.

[@Metalfusioncowboy]

Hi great work I just finished my bubbler , I'm using vinyl clear double polished sheet cut into strips for ties since the tubing is also vinyl this should work pretty good ! Wal-Mary stocks it in different thicknesses and cheap to , thanks for all your hard work and sometimes it pays off!! Well hopefully

[@devilscutbistro2433]

what about using some sort of tumbler instead of air bubbler to remove gold flakes?

[@rockin_coalmangaming6206]

What all could you use this process for other than fingers?

[@JhourladEstrella]

Not sure what's the difference but what you did I was able to do in less than an hour. Still figuring out what it is. Anyway, thanks. Great video, my man.

[@stevemachin6372]

You must have the patience of a saint! Great video though.

[@nickstoyles75]

This video was 1 of the first that I watched on gold recovery. I'm just coming to the end of my first year and I'm pleased to share with you that I have recovered just over 16 grams of gold from ram sticks. So I just wanted to say a big thank you for posting your videos. I wouldn't have such an interesting hobby if it hadn't been for you doing them. Merry Christmas and a happy New year to you Mr Moose!

[@helderfreitas6760]

sorry...another question....you only used muriatic acid?

[@52egdim]

Can you put gold plated pins and god plated boards all together? also is there a part 2 of this video? showing the refining?

[@070ToBy]

Hey Moose Thanks for all your videos, I have learned a lot from you I have been watching your videos for some time now. In one of the videos you mentioned how to cleen the A/P solution from copper and other metals. How did you do that? Sorry for my bad english im from sweden

[@moosescrapper5928]

You can remove the copper from AP by placing a piece of stainless steel in there for a day or two.

[@suharyanto831]

Dear, is this process no need to be adding peroxide? Can it work, caused in your another video you add peroxide into the acid solution. Which one is more effectfy for leaching? Thanks before

[@laughinggas2667]

Hello sir, i want to know about disposing off the acid peroxide solution after the whole process of recovering gold from gold fingers and what is the maximum quantity of gold fingers you have processed at a time and from that how much gold you are able to recover and is there any possibility that the acid peroxide solution may dissolve gold from the fingers if i keep the fingers say for 4 days in the solution and during the process is there any emission of harmful gases and can the gases be filtered by heavy duty air filters?

[@MTmoneytree]

Another great vid moose!! can you pop one up of how you recharge the chemical for the next batch of fingers. cheers from the uk!!

[@moosescrapper5928]

Sounds good to me!

[@sansabar1]

Hey Moose Love your vids bro Just starting up my own recovery setup.

[@MrEbenezer13]

You should have made a little motor contraption that helped shake/rotate the strainer bucket as well, on a stable constant rate, that would probably have sped up the entire process for several days.

[@tylertrisket3368]

Does it matter if i use the low fume or regular hcl i have so much regular hcl dont want to waste it. I know this is an old video but hope for a reply

[@dmcneal8]

Hey Moose, Great videos ! I have just started trying to recover gold from electronics. I have a question about older cell phones. I have noticed that some of the boards are gold plated under green paint or fiber material. The gold covers most of the board. Do I need to remove the paint/material to expose the gold before give it the acid bath like you did with the board fingers or how do I go about reclaiming that gold? There seems to be a lot on there. Thanks.

[@moosescrapper5928]

David McNeal The gold woll only come off if you take the green solder mask off. Mix a solution that is 80% water and 20% lye and heat until just boiling. Don't get any on your skin!!! Don't worry about fumes. Place the board in there for about 10 minutes and the solder mask should wipe right off.

[@dmcneal8]

Thanks Moose. I will give it a try. If you have the time, a how to video on that might prove useful. I've watched several videos for gold recovery and have never seen that mentioned. Thanks a lot. Good videos !

[@moosescrapper5928]

David McNeal Did that last year. Here is the linkkzbin.info/www/bejne/nYuolmyhgMyhmcU

[@josephcorcino9507]

I noticed in one of your videos your bench vise can be pulled open by hand. I think that means a bolt underneath has become unattached. Simply dismount the vice and look underneath. You should be able to reattach the nut and your voice will be working properly again

Hello Moose Scrapper I have enjoyed many of your videos, I was wondering what would be the equivalent UK version of the Crown Muriatic Acid Nxt you are using that has the low fumes. I am currently using the Hydrochloric Acid 36%, lots of fumes coming out. I am using the correct equipment breathing mask/ glass and gloves. but it would just make it a lot easier if I could get something similar to what you've got

[@richardvancleave7235]

Love your videos! I have some flat white computer that looks like it has silver in it. How do i get the silver out and cleanly? Thanks!

[@moosescrapper5928]

Hi and thanks for watching. I really can not help you much with silver. Most recovery of silver requires the use of nitric acid which I do not use.

[@MrLuther1973]

great gold removing from electronics. do you smelt after ? why cant you just smelt to burn of plastics ?

[@moosescrapper5928]

Well, there re toxic fumes, and contaminants to the gold. Not a great practice. Also illegal to burn plastics in many places.

We already have a small scale recycling and waste management company and we would like to expand to e-waste.

[@mikestafford5089]

Hi moose I've watched some of your videos. Just wondering do you have a single video explains the complete process from start to finish or links to the individual videos I have the ram chips and the contacts from memory channels on the motherboards am I correct there is 2 processes for the 2 types?Thanks for your time

[@moosescrapper5928]

+mike Stafford Great question, I have had a lot of requests for a video like that but it would be a half our video at least. THe processes are roughly the same though you need to do them separately. There are three different materials here. You have the IC chips from the ram, the gold plated fingers on the ram chip, and the gold plated pins on the mother board where the ram chips connects. The gold plated pins neeed to be soaked in a 50/50 hcl peroxide solution. It takes days but the gold comes off. The trimmed fingers get soaked in HCL with an aior bubbler (preferred) or a ratio of no more than 4:1 hcl and peroxide. As for the IC's that is a multi step process that I am working on making the video for.

[@natepen]

Great video and can't wait for the refining video. One thought about getting the foils off quicker though. What do you think about a rock tumbler method? I'd think that the agitation would help. Any thoughts?

[@moosescrapper5928]

Constant agitation will not speed it up that much and you run the ris kof hcl leaking and ruining the rock tumbler. I would use a rock tumbler with some steel ball bearings and throw in IC's and see how that works if I had a tumbler. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@Newmath907]

+moose scrapper would it be more effective to put your air hose inside the bucket with the material in it as opposed to outside the bucket?

[@moosescrapper5928]

Does not matter. As long as the liquid is getting oxygen

[@Newmath907]

cool beans thanks. I just thought the percolation would help wiggle the fingers off

[@moosescrapper5928]

It might, they tend to fall off with the periodic agitation though.

[@verkannan]

Heya Moose, i noted a couple of things in the video (a very nice and easy to understand video by the way), firstly in the headline you mention pins, but i only noticed fingers in the acctual video, would be very nice to see a video for a similiar simple process for pins. secondly you use the term AP several times, did i miss somethng or wasnt this all about hydrocloric and air ? no peroxide. Keep up the nice work, you are an inspiration for us beginners in the buisness :)

[@moosescrapper5928]

Hi and thanks for watching and commenting! I did not put pins in there for this video. I like to process things seperately. The title is to note that you can use this method to recover a variaty of things from gold fingers, plated pins, cell phone boards, etc. The term AP I do use, and I suppose that is a pit confusing. I am not adding hydrogen peroxide however I am adding oxygen with the air bubbler. When the process is completed, the chemical make up of this vs true AP is identical. Good catch!

[@verkannan]

Moose Scrapper For pins, wouldnt you need a container with smaller holes, i imagine pins would fall through the smaller bucket in your video ?

[@shanehurt7325]

hey moose, it may be a dumb question. but what happens if you put the whole motherboard in a/p solution to recover all the gold from the pins instead of cutting all the pins off.

[@moosescrapper5928]

+BMAN488877 A nightmare....typically. As I mention in all of my gold recovery videos, it is VERY important to not try and take short cuts. It is also VERY important to keep solutions as clean as possible and know just what you are putting in there. There are so many things that can screw up the process but if you are only putting in a certain thing then its easier to fix the problem. If you throw the whole board in there, here is a short list of what can happen, this does not include everything:Some plastics can soften and gel up capturing gold making it extraordinarily difficult to recover. HCL reacts violently with aluminum and then the aluminum settles with the gold, making it very hard to separate. Your solution will not be able to be revived by simply pulling the copper out. The tin, lead, and antimony in the solder can gel up or precip a white powder making it very difficult to recover the gold foils. This is just to name a few things. You simply can not take short cuts or try to speed things up. Hope this helps, be safe!

[@mullins719]

Nice video moose. I put all my gold plated pins in ap. Solution and not much gold has come off. I used 3\1. Muriatic \peroxide. Solution. I have put it on a hot plate. For a while also. Its been 3 days. And it is cold out I'm in Ohio. Any suggesyions?

[@moosescrapper5928]

For gold plated pins you have a couple of options without using nitric acid. You can use just HCL and heat. Remember that 1 gallon of HCL can hold 2 lbs of base metal so make sure there is enough HCL to dissolve the material in your beaker. 2, Origianl feets preferes to use a ration of 1:1 of HCL and peroxide, no heat. He has had some good results with this just be sure to check the solution for dissolved gold beofre discarding as that much peroxide can start to dissolve the gold. Best of luck!

[@jenstoft123]

hey nice videoes im from denmark and me and my freind has started this as a hobby we have some procesors and pin's from ram sockets. i have 2 questions first is how can it be when we use the acid on gold from the sucket pins it seems like there is no gold and the second is the gold in the acid that the filter dosent take can u get that back to solid form i hear u say it in the video but cant really hear it

[@moosescrapper5928]

jens toft The plating on the socket pins is really minimal so you would need at least a pound of them to get measurable gold. The gold does not often go into the solution when processing pins because of the quantity of base metals. If you feel some gold is in solution, you can take a clean piece of copper pipe and place it in the solution.. It will super saturate the solution with copper forcing the gold out usually as a black powder.

[@jenstoft123]

i got like 1kg in one month so it looked like there was alot of gold plated matiriel ind it we have extremly mutch black sand there maybe contains gold. btw. youtube do not always just jump to that video u normaly reguest to watch when u take next step of the proces so just an idea link the video in the detials and thx again man some good videos

[@burningxdagger]

Hello, I was wondering if this would be the same process for silver? Do you know how to extract silver as well?

[@iristheyveltal7756]

No, if you want silver you must use nitric avid to make to make silver nitrate then use copper to get pure silver powder then melt it. When reacting with nitric acid this results in TOXIC gas nitric oxide do it outside with caution.

what would you recomend i do with computer hard ware? i recently moved into an apartment and trashed 2 computers into the dumpster... there was not much i could do to stop it happening, we did not have room to store them any longer. i know there was atleast a gram inside of each. i hoped.

[@moosescrapper5928]

Hi anf thanks for watching! Dont feel too bad about trashing the two computers unless they were pentium pro or older. If they were newer, then it is very unlikely you have 1 gram between the both and thats if you processed every single part of it. If you cant store much of it, then I would sell it. There are lots of buyers on ebay and on boardsort.com. Best of luck to you!

Great video! I started following the channel as I started getting into scrapping CPU's... What would you recommend doing with the pins to maximize profit?

[@daynongnant3604]

I found somewhat of an answer in the comments on HCL and heat... Could you estimate that purity?

[@moosescrapper5928]

daynon gnant The purity from just recovering the gold with HCL and heat is impossible to guess as there is going to most definintely still be some nickel, or other base metal in there. If you then take the foils and process them with HCL and bleach to refine it, then you will end up with 22K and up. Thanks!

[@omardotson]

I have a question because I have a problem i shaved some fingers and put them back into the AP with the normal fingers, because they still have copper on it now gold started come off the normal ones and are practically ready, but the shaved ones are in with the normal foils and the back of them still have copper on them, so basically I got a goop of gold with little shaved fingers in it, that didnt finish all the way almost impossible too separate,but most of the foils are normal, what should i do? moosescapper?

[@moosescrapper5928]

+omar dotson Honestly, I would say stir them regularly and be patient. Gold recovery and refining cant be rushed or gold is lost. If it is copper, it will come off in time, and should not take too long. A few days tops.

Where did you get the muriatic acid next from? I am still saving my gold stuff for now, does this work for the gold pins too? Can I use any kind of glass container or does it have to be a beaker?

[@moosescrapper5928]

I got it at Home Depot. Most hardware stores carry that or a version of it.

What did you use to secure hose to bucket?

[@moosescrapper5928]

Nuthin....it ended up not moving at all so I just left it as is. Once I am done with what I am working on now I will take a bleach jug and cut the plastic into thin strips and use those to tie the tubing.
