Silver Dog Doug Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I am working a tailing pile and finding gold in Limonite and quartz. ? what is the best way to get the gold out without crushing it. I have been puting it in pool acid for days. Silver Dog Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldfinger Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Pool acid will not work and I'm not sure any single acid will either. One acid might attack the quartz and leave the limonite and the gold. Another acid might attack the limonite and leave the quartz and gold. I guess you could try and use both separately but I'm not sure what your intentions are. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
