I have been a gold miner for 30 years. We used to put the mercury in a pan like you did with the concentrates, then squeeze it through a cloth and came out with an amalgamate nugget of gold and mercury including all of the fines. Then burn it off , then just touch it and it would break up into all of the original gold.
Are you saying that all the original pieces of God would be there at the end as they were before amalgamation???
Did you bring the jet dry? 😅
This was also my experience, overheat the amalgam and you will get a sponge, which in the days of old was the only legal way to own refined gold.
@@danhelwig"legal way to own refined gold"
Uhhhh.....money?
@@isthisoneunavailableIt used to be illegal for humans to own gold in America. Only the lizard people in government could legally own gold... It is part of the history of the USA, but no school likes to teach the truth... Like the government killing people with the army, they don't like to tell the truth. Never trust the lizard people in government...
For being a professional you are missing two filters that snap onto that 3M respirator. That pre filter stops the particulate's that save your filter from clogging up.
Thanks dad.
Ok Karen
It’s a gram of gold, not a factory. 😮
That's very particular
Dropped a thermometer when I was a kid. Collected the merc. with paper and put it on a penny. Eventually it seemed to soak in, just leaving a spot on the surface. Was ok though. It was the early 80's. Much safer back then....... :) Thanks Pauly! Hope your tank is full so you can continue your adventures!
Back when cents were made of copper not zinc
@@mentalmetalist I’m from the future, cents aren’t made at all now
"Dropped" it
Didn't soak into the copper it evaporated, it will evaporate at room temperature
Yessssss! Pauly Sciencing!!!! I genuinely appreciate and just love the extra effort you go to in the editing and stuff for these kinds of videos dude. All your vids of course, but science is just rad, and it’s cool seein you have fun with it 👌🇦🇺
LOVED THIS!!! Very educational and you made sure all safety precautions were taken. Thank you for this great video Pauly! Have a great weekend!
Very cool we don’t see it ever here in Tassie so a good education for me although it probably is about 👍🏼
Very interesting Pauly, I've seen Mercury recovered from it's host rock (Cinnabar), I believe it was on Cody's lab and he had a huge retort. You could hear the drops of mercury hitting the walls as it condensed. Thanks for the video, and yes working with mercury vapors is dangerous, glad you wore the correct PPE while doing it!
Yeah i watched that too!😂👍
Did you also see Cody handle mercury and then get tested! Mercury is very safe when handled correctly.
@@Scorpster Yes I did, when handled properly it's very safe!
9:40 You had plenty of mercury to collect all the gold. What you failed to do was tumble it together. You have to constantly mix the gold, dirt, and mercury. That allows all the gold to be captured by the mercury. Tumbling is best, because you can set the tumbler and let it run for an hour. But I suppose mixing with a kitchen mixer would do. Even a magnetic stir pellet in a beaker. The important thing is constant agitation.
Hi Pauly! great video!!
Very cool and educational to see how mercury behaves in water and around gold.
Most of us (hobby) prospectors have found some flakes of gold covered in mercury.
Very interesting to see how it can be extracted or cleaned with a retort, many thanks for that!
Stay happy & safe!!
Cheers from Switzerland
Dude! So happy you made one of these videos. I’ve been waiting to see how you delt with amalgam that you find in the rivers.
Hi Pauly,
Of course, it‘s super cool to play with mercury but be aware, you created a million microscopic tiny beads, you'll never collect (check the scratches in your pan with a loupe). They will vaporize over the time but stay in your shop forever...
You'll also never get all of the mercury out of the black sand, now it's hazardous waste.
In order to avoid the vaporization, all things that were in contact with the mercury, should stored under water or at least in sealable plastic bags (e.g. the retort).
Best regards from Germany!
Oh definitely. Even if we vacuumed the shop we wouldn't get it all -- A price to pay for education I guess! Everything is in bags in a cool safe. Thanks for stopping by! 🇩🇪🇨🇦
I recently found a mercury covered nugget on the Yuba in California and once it was burned off WOW did it shine. Thanks to my buddies help! Awesome video. Love science
I love finding new videos from you!
And I love making new videos for you!!
Nice knowledge, thanks Pauly!
Thanks for the video. I have a small amount I do need to retort, and that small retort is just perfect.
I am so old that I remember playing with the stuff bare handed in grade school science class around 1961 (third grade?) It was very cool to do, but now we know how toxic it is. Maybe that is why I am how I am now! Drain Bamage. So many things we played with back then that is not allowed today. What do you get when you mix powder charcoal, sulfur, and one other ingredient? So many fun projects for kids. Just be careful you don't end up having the nickname Stumpy!!!
Boomstick juice! Not as OLD as you, but I'm getting there : D
Any time a thermometer got broken in our household; in the early 70's, my sister and I would play with it. We turned out pretty normal, but have wondered if it has had any lasting health issues!
Charcoal sulfur and salt peter = black powder.
@@bobirving6052 use to mix that up and charge my home made cannot that would shoot 3/4 in ball bearings from dump trucks. Cannon might be a stretch since it was just galvanized plumbing pipe with a cap on the end and a small hole drilled for a fuse port. At thirty yards it would punch through one inch wood siding like cardboard. Fun projects for ten year olds. Just walk into a local pharmacy and buy powdered sulfur and salt peter in a brown paper bags by weight no questions. Today Homeland Security would knock at your door.
Very cool to finally get a look at how this is done, thank you
Love that you're getting new content in brother. That was really cool. Have a gooder
Thanks Pauly for another great video. Be safe and good luck.
That was a great video! Thanks pauly and friends
This was neat! Super enjoy your content & your personality 😊
Very happy to see u back here Pauly
that was cool fam. keep on getting that AU. GOLD SQUAD OUT!!!
Very interesting, ...I learned something today. Thanx Pauly
Pauly great teaching on how to ... enjoyed the share - thank you.
Wow that was awesome info and video 😎 Thank you for doing it 😎👍
Well Pauly you've done it again.I love watching your videos and learning about gold recovery. I've been watching g you from the beginning and it never gets old. There's just something about the way you do your videos I enjoy watching. There funny,exciting,and informative.I know much more about gold panning now though Han I ever Dr d and hope one day ill be able to try it myself. It seems to be a lot of work but worth it in the end. Thanks Pauly for all ya do for our entertainment! Keep on pannin!
Thanks learn something today how interesting I have heard about it but never have seen it like what you showed thanks for doing a science project instead of just reading a script😊
thank you Pauly I learned something new today amazing that I have not heard of it before
Really enjoyed the video. It was a nice balanced mix of entertainment to information.
Pioneer Pauly always seems to be in such good spirits! Thanks for sharing bro! Keep up the great prospecting content and nugget sniping videos too! 🤙🏼
Polly, did you ever get a larger retort?
Pauly IS BACK to YT!!!!! Woot, we missed you very much my friend ❤️
Really interesting info dude. Thanks
That was fun!!! Second comment several months later, I went to a class and the teacher said that the retort should be totally cool before removing, you can just leave it or after 20 -30 minutes if not cool then drip water over the top. But to leave it to cool until you can remove it by hand, with only a plastic glove. Otherwise you can release the mercury vapor
Thanks for sharing thats pretty cool!!
Good work Pauly, I like the little retort tool. A bit tipsy but handy.
Thanks
✌️PT
I live for your videos Pauly cause they are pure gold!
This video was SSOOOOO helpful! I panned 3 or 4 grams of what looked like buckshot, but the magnet wouldnt grab it. I set the pan in the sun to dry and came back to a puddle of mercury! I dont have any way refining it myself so itll a cool souvenir 😅
Great video mate. Very interesting stuff
Very cool vid!! Always use a Retort outdoors just in case and make sure that tube has fully cooled before removing! Storing the retort in a sealed plastic container is a good idea too. That is a super nice little retort by the way! i hope guy who made it can find another seat post for his bike soon..lol
Can't wait!!
Loved Mercury Stairs!!!
Cool I've learned something new today thank yea sir much love n stay safely golden
We got to play with the Mercury in science class in the 60’s. We would coat our rings in it to make them shiny. The things we didn’t know.
Anytime a thermometer got broken in the early 70's my sister and I would play with it. I can guarantee that some particles were dropped! Had no idea back then it was a haz mat. 😳
Very cool - always wondered how the process worked.
i was prospecting here in Vermont and found some gold, and also some mercury. it was super cool! they merged though so i took that cut and put it in a glass jar with some mineral oil until i could also process it apart. but got to wait till i have more material to work with lol. for now it just a nice sample lol.
Another great video :) Havent seen this done before, so it was interesting :) Have a great one.
Good video, Super Fun and good info-I have the same thoughts for using it to collect the fines together, but you make a good point on the retort being small, which I love the one in this video!
I just watched a guy put his gold in a towel and then placed the Gold and towel in a syringe and push out the Mercury-
I’ll definitely have a retort like this next time out, I’ve used it to clean gold once before and it really does work well!!!
That was a fun vid, thank you for your " professionalism " :)
very good info to know thanks for sharing
Hey Pauly, ❤️ your videos and you. Please stay safe!
Hiya Pauly, awesome video, hey I found a piece of Quartz one time that had mercury in it, but I was crushing the Quartz for the gold. I wish I would have known about doing this trick with a torch, it would have been much easier.
Thanks for showing us this way of getting the gold cleaned from the mercury 👌 Thanks so much. I really enjoyed watching this video and learning something new ☺.
I really hope you have a awesome blessed day.
Cya! 😺🐟out!
Make a pouch in the center of a chamois, place amalgam into the pouch, then Squeeze the Amalgam mercury thru a chamois, the pouch contains the amalgam, then empty the pouch into the retort and there you have it, cooked off mercury and clean Gold. Saw that on AskJeffWilliams and Two Toes Gary.
Great informative video!
Great video pioneer pauly!
That was a great video pauly
that was a fantastic video thanks
Thanks for the information
that was awesome i like the surface tension tests you did and then the mercury retort cleanin the nugget cool that awesome a bunch of stuff i didnt know about mercury😎👍🧐
I'm a little more learnded up now.😅 tnx Pauly love the vlogs.
The mercury going down the Lego was such an amazing shot, it's so surreal it felt like cg and I know it wasn't .
You broke my smooth Brain 🧠
Hugs headed your way, Pauly!! GREAT job!! I was also under the impression that passing mercury across or through black sand would result in a larger ball of amalgam, wonder why it didn't? Ask Dan, maybe? Can't wait to see your next vids!
Very kool vid Paul 👍🐸👍
Great video Paulie! I loved the Lego staircase😁
Thank you! I'm going to make something much better in a future mercury video!
Nice video! Great camera work as always
Awesome and educational video, thanks for sharing and taking us all along. Where would you recommend someone to buy their own retort like the one you're using in this video?
Good stuff man.
Hello Paul, that mixture of black sand and gold has to be pickled in sulphuric pickle first for mercury encapsulation,only then You could get it in one lump,regards George
Brilliant video mate
Love the music accompaniment!! You rock Pauly! (I mean you gold)
Oh why thank you!!
Excellent video Pauly, i also had success in seperating Mercury from gold.
When i retrieved the mercury from the pan after using the tube retort,
the mercury doesn.t seem to want to join back together in the vial which i found strange.
I can’t believe we use to have to stick mercury thermometers in our mouth to take our temperature lmao.
Better than where else they used to stick it.
@@ITechcompulock 🙈
Great video Paula. Always wanted to know how they recovered gold covered in mercury. 👍🏻
It would be a lot safer to use your retort outside with a breeze to your back. Mercury in liquid form doesn't`t exhaust fumes until heated of course. Also the best retort is the one that looks kinda like a still. It`d be great if you could do a vid. retrieving the 30,50,100,200 as well, using the chamois method ,cause that`s really cool too. thanks
Thanks for the fascinating video
I was always curious on how this works, now I finally know they answer.
As a hazmat guy that cleans up mercury spills, your shop, Legos, pan and everything you touched is now hazardous waste. Hmu if you want some guidance on limiting your repeated exposure. Fun vid Pauly ❤
The channel ask Jeff Williams shows like a mercury gold retort or something. You hear up one end and the mercury goes to the other end and distills in water so you don’t waste mercury or pollute.
It’s like ya third world countries just using mercury without gloves and breathing the stuff as they burn it ya that’s pretty bad but the mercury retort thing I saw seemed pretty safe.
Eye protection was missing but hey I'm just a viewer.. Be safe everyone!!
So we should be dredging our rivers and creeks to remove mercury from our waterways? Ca. Doesn't think so. They would rather leave it in your water. Genious!
Should have schlooovelled it...
Great vid pauly. Was talking about this method recently with a scrapper.
great info!
On the claim I left the sucker bottle on an angle with gold and mercury for days and the fines did join together to make a clump and when burnt off formed a nugget from fines.
Happy to see you.
nice thank you for sharing
Nice vid Pauly
If you place gold leaf on top of the beaker of Mercury, it will absorb the gold leaf like a sponge.
Pauly the Science guy, Too Cool!
Very cool ty
I remember finding mercury for the first time and a well known miner I know told me what it was. He said I can touch it without a glove in its liquid state. When I told my family this they all freaked out except for my grandparents may they RIP. I asked my grandfather, didn't you used to play with this stuff from the thermometers back when you were a kid? He says most definitely we didn't all the time and the rest of the family were speechless. It was the funniest reaction I've seen with my whole family. Priceless.
Those retorts are very special.
I always wanted to know how to separate Mercury from Gold! Cool!!!
Ya this was HELPFUL
Edutainment at it's finest
Another Great video
Should have used that SHLOOVEL to seperate the gold from the black sand magnetite... 🤣🤣🤣
Hello, you are very inspiring and I am also starting to metal detect but I haven’t made any videos on my channel about it
Hi Pauly! 😁Can you please do a video on all the gold you have collected over the years please?😊
Try putting it all into a tumbler at low speed for a day. The Gold/Mercury amalgams should attach to each other and form a ball that you can just pick out of the black sand. The other trick is to do it like you did but work it in a pan full of water with your fingers and try to work the little pieces all together into a ball.
I really liked this video
It's simple easy to build and use 👍
That was fun.
Whoa Pauly, I never knew your Intellectual side 😳🧪🥼🎓 your a good Human ✊
