GotGold Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hello John, This is what I came up with ................ Wow Mike.....this is a very cool conversion calculator for 'specific gravity' tests! Can other metal be converted using the same system? Did you put this together or......? This is really neet stuff, thanks Mike :cool04: Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John B. Posted January 16, 2008 Author Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hi Mike Pieter Hydelaars book says multiply air weight by 1.9 multiply water weight buy 3.1 then subtract the air from the water and that's the gold content :smrt1: . I come up with 20.12 dwt :shrug: !! Give or take an ounce or 2 :hmmmmmm: ?? Happy Huntin John B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Dorado Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Big nuggets no matter what! How about a picture of the cleaned up contoversial weight piece. On thing I see about that way cool chart is the weight was figured assuming the gold was 24K. While I have heard AZ gold can be high karat I doubt if it is pure gold.

psp1964 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Mike, It may help to rename the file and add (.xls) to the end so it has association to excel for example "gold test.xls" Hope this helps Patrick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micro Nugget Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 John B: Some things are ugly on the outside, but are beautiful on the inside. Congrats!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psp1964 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Hi Mike, this appears to be data that requires an additional program to generate the spread sheet. Can you tell us the name of the program you use or is this a spread sheet you made? I was able to download it this time but in raw data format and unable to convert to something legible.
