$7000 tip ... ? Here is the MAGIC leach formula that is being sold to other gullible people by an “expert gold man” for $7000! Well... The truth is it is just SSN... The same stuff we use in our KD-1 and here is the formula for FREE! There are many different kinds of leach, we have listed two that we have found to work well for us. It is important that you realize that certain leaches work better on different kinds of ore and carbon depending on what other elements are included in the ore complex. We have found the 4:1-AR (diluted) solution to work better on the carbon AND that the 7:1 SSN, which is our KD-1 solution, is probably the best overall leach, although the halox leaches work very well, we are not recommending them here as they are a lot more toxic and harder to handle.Hazard or health concerns on our KD solutions. KD-1 does contain a diluted acid mix in the solution. Wash hands and keep off clothing. Be careful as if you were handling laundry bleach. KD-3 needs to be handled in a similar manner as KD-1. Wash hands and keep off of clothing. If you have sensitive skin wear gloves during the testing process. All products are non-flammable. CAUTION: Keep out of reach of children. Wear gloves. If swallowed call physician immediately.Bottom line… you have more hazards under your kitchen sink!
AR Leach 4:1AR Leach 4:1 (Aqua Regia leach) This 4:1 formula is for a diluted AR is highly recommended for gold recovery as it can be a bit more selective for the gold and is recommended for leaching gold from the carbon. Follow the directions very carefully as in the making of this leach as the off gas can be harmful to the lungs and very toxic. Our final product is a dilution of 4:1 but we have the make the leach full strength and it is quite toxic and dangerous if handled improperly. When you have the full strength AR made you let it set at least 24 hour at room temperature to "cure". After being "cured" you then dilute it 4:1 and you are ready to go. Once in its "diluted" state in is an excellent leachant for gold and is not an expensive leach to make. Remember even in a diluted state you do not want to breath the fumes and extreme caution and care should be exercised when handling this leach. DIRECTIONS: use the same ratios to make any size batch you wish. Be sure that you have a well-ventilated area when mixing any chemicals… do not breath the fumes!You mix together 4 parts of Muratic Acid with 1 part of Nitric Acid in a glass or plastic container. This is a 4 to 1 ratio. For example you mix 1 pint of Nitric to 4 pints of Muratic acid. If you are using full strength industrial grade HCL then you mix at 3:1 ratio. Once you have your solution you need to let this sit for up to 24 hours. The longer it sits the darker yellow color it gets. DO NOT BREATHE THE FUMES! This is straight Aqua Regia Leach but is very strong and aggressive and can be used for some applications. But it is expensive and we highly recommend that you use the 4:1 dilution for dissolving gold out of your ores and off the carbon. It needs to be diluted down by using 4 parts distilled water to 1 part full strength AR. Diluting it down to a 4:1 actually makes it work better for dissolving gold without working on so many other of the metals. Now you take the above full strength solution and add it to a distilled water solution at a rate of 4 to 1. 4 parts of water for every 1 part of the above AR solution. In the above mix you have a 5 pints of acid, 4 Muriatic and 1 nitric, now you need to add 20 pints or 2 1/2 gallons of distilled water for a total volume of 3 gallons and 1 pint of AR diluted leach. You also may keep your full strength AR in a container and dilute it as needed, for example pour off 1 pint of AR into 4 pints of distilled water and now you have an excellent leach for your carbon and ores. REMEMBER, ACID INTO WATER, NOT WATER INTO ACID.
SSN Leach 7:1SSN Leach.7:1 (Saturated salt and Nitric acid) this is one of the best leaches for leaching gold and complex hard to leach ores and can be enhanced with addition of a small amount of Iodine. The only downside is that once you have leached your ore or carbon you must neutralize the nitric before you try to extract any of the precious metals out of the pregnant leach. Follow the directions very carefully and you will have an excellent leach for your ore and carbon. This is a mild but very aggressive leach for gold and other precious metals such as the platinum group metals (PGM's). It is not as harmful to the skin as the AR leach nor are the fumes quite as toxic, but we still recommend care and caution when making and handling this leach.DIRECTIONS: NOTE: This recipe is for 2 gallons of leach; you just use the same ratio to make any amount you want. Be sure that you have a well-ventilated area when mixing any chemicals… do not breath the fumes! Bring 2 gallons of distilled water to a boil in a coated metal pan… like the gray/black ones used for canning. Add in about 6 pounds of non-iodized salt and stir in very well. You want to fully saturate the salt into the water. Let the solution cool overnight and let all of the excess salt settle to the bottom of the container. Some salt may still be floating on top or stuck to the side of the container… just tap on the side of the container and they will settle to the bottom. Dip out 7 quarts of the saturated salt water into another plastic or glass container. You will have a lot of salt gathered in the bottom and approx a qt of water, just save this or the next batch and repeat the process but use apprx 5+ pounds of salt on the second and future batches. We just use plastic buckets with lids on them. Now to your 7 quarts of saturated salt water you Add 1 quart of Nitric Acid and mix it together. BE CAREFUL OF THE FUMES that are released. DO NOT BREATHE THEM! If you want the leach to be more aggressive… which you probably will not need because it is very aggressive as it is… you can add up to 1 ounce of iodine. This is the iodine that you buy at a feed store that is used on livestock. It is 7% solution of iodine and costs around $20 a gallon.
