Agitation is the key. You need to get the fingers rubbing against themselves to break the foils loose. A single bubbler is too passive. You need an aggressive boil by using a tube with multiple air holes in the bottom with air pressure strong enough to move things around. Letting it just sit is like holding you hands in a sink hoping they come clean. You need to scrub them to get them clean. Your soak would likely have been only a few days not weeks. Also, recharge your acid as the reaction weakens the brew.

I may have said this before but, in my opinion it would be far easier and less wasteful to blend such "fingers" to dust which will also contain fine gold dust. Mixing that dust with nitric should extract 10 times faster and with far less acid any unwanted metals in my opinion. Nevertheless it was an interesting episode, as always. Too bad the yield dollarwise was much lower than the acquisition price... but it still makes a very entertaining video to watch :)

Back in the day my PC broke. So I figured out how to fix it because I couldn't afford to pay someone to fix it. Over the next few years I got really good at it. I started collecting computer parts to fix/upgrade friends and family members computers. I had a huge stock pile of parts. After watching this video I went to see how much I had so I could try this and my wife chucked it. I'm a lot more bummed about it then I should be. lol. You make it look so easy that I want to try it. I don't even really want the gold and I hated science in school. I never would have thought I would spend this much time watching these kinds of videos. Thank you.

9.6g of pure gold= roughly $621..... I recall at the beginning of the video it's stated $1000 total for all 5 bags of 'trim scrap' ($100 for 2 bags; $400 for 2 bags; $500 for 1 bag)..... $379 loss on purchase of the trim to final yield, and that's IF the gold could be sold at spot price. Include the cost of chemicals for the processing and it's probably closer to a $500 loss on the cash invested in the trim boards. But a truly fascinating process and thank you for sharing (subscriber here). I wish you well and safe travels.
