Metal salt "transmutation" is well documented in history. It's where the idea of transmuting other metals into gold came from. The idea was that "oil of vitriol" that has the essence of a higher metal (in this case, silver) could wash out the impurities of a lower metal, leaving behind a greater quantity of higher metal. We now know that what's actually going on is that due to metals like Iron being more reactive than copper, the iron would displace the copper in copper sulfate, leaving a thin layer of copper on the surface of the iron, and converting an equivalent amount of copper sulfate to Iron sulfate. The novel part of the process used in this video compared to the well known sulfate process is that the electrical current serves to drive the reaction past the equilibrium point. In short, while alchemists would be amazed by his process, they would also have a pretty clear grasp on what processes are at play, and would be more surprised by the quantity of silver 'made' rather than the fact that he got silver at all.

I just started my own silver cell without a fume hood but I am working outside with a fan going & away from public. It's only been an hour since I started & there's already crystals forming around the stainless steel pot! Thanks for all your informative videos @sreetips!! Wish I could post pictures on here...
Thank you for the super slow, super close look at the crystals on bowl both in and out of solution. That was an amazing sight to behold. I can only imagine how epic is must be in person. You rock, Sreetips. 🤘❤🤘
Time lapse of the cement silver forming on the copper and falling to the bottom was really neat to see. I don't remember seeing that particular footage in earlier videos. Really gives you a good visual for the chemical reaction and how much silver is actually coming out of that small amount of electrolyte. Great content!
😲That looks gorgeous. I'd love to keep it in that crystal form as an art piece with the blue liquid frozen in time. The time lapse video on the copper is AWESOME!
This is the type of chemistry that would have got my school science class flipping out over solutions, chrystals and reactions. Well I'm flipping out a bit about this lot right now. It's totally brilliant.
Yeah, my first thought was this needs some macro photography, I so wanted to see more of the detail. Especially when the crystals were still in solution, but also when they were washed. I also wanted to know how fragile they are. Are they durable enough for instance to be encased in a way that they will not discolour over time. I would rather own a silver crystal than a piece of jewellery tbh, far more beautiful.
One of the best vids ive seen on the chemistry behind the pour. Unreal. Absolutely stunning images from the crystalline formation in the electrolyte solution to the timelapse Cu dissolving with Au. Unreal. Wow!
😳 those are absolutely beautiful. I’ve got 500ozt of sterling and sweeps to process. I started up two cells. Lol. You got some beauties my friend. You should pull out some of the bigger ones and keep them.
Holly shit... In ancient Hungarian folk tales, in the fay land, dragons living in magical metal forests. Lead forest, silver forest, gold forest... And those forests usually round. You just made yourself a magic forest.
Incase anyone was wondering, as of 5/1/2021, silver is selling at .84 per gram, therefore this batch has generated him $1302.84. Edit: this makes all the times my chemistry teacher said 'It pays to learn chemistry.' Hit home.
Jason, this is my hobby. I’ve got much silver to process. I just keep cranking out pure silver. I don’t sell it because the price is too low right now. Maybe when silver gets to $100. Even then, I’ll only sell it when I need paper to pay bills and buy food.
It's always so incredible to see silver just grow! Grow in the crystals in the stainless steel bowl and this one was very interesting to see on the copper!! Don't see it like that to often!! Have a GREAT Day My Friend!!!
I did silver chloride experiments in high school and the crystals of silver looked transparent like when you put the copper in your rinse solution. Beautiful.
@12:52 anyone else have flashbacks to watching Bill Nye do a successful experiment on PBS while growing up? That sincere sound of wonder at the natural world and how it works 🙂
I used to love making crystals when I was working at a high school at one time as the lab tech. The students were blown away by the colours and shapes and when they helped me make some copper sulphate crystals they were blown away. We made some beautiful crystals, one was even as large as your hand and it was so clear it looked like bright blue glass. I made sure to take the time to explain why they made different shapes (molecular angles), why some were square, rhombic etc. I only hope I sparked some interest in one of them... I was lucky that I had a high school teacher who didn't think girls couldn't do science and encouraged my interests in chemistry during years 9 and 10. In the 70s and early 80s girls didn't do the hard sciences (chemistry and physics) only the 'soft' ones such as biology or environmental science. He once gave the few of us who were a bit brighter a geological map of the nearby mountains (Mount Dandenong and the lower Great Dividing Range, Victoria, Australia) and asked us if we could figure out what order the rocks had been laid down, what types they were, their origin and what geological action had taken place such as volcanic, glacial erosion etc. It made for some spirited discussions between the four of us as we could see how some rocks had been shifted up or slammed down. Mr Hall if you are out there somewhere.... thank you for your encouragement to dive deeper into this magical world of science - I can never thank you enough.
I had a lab set up in my basement as a young boy. I was fascinated by science and chemistry. This hobby of mine is a spin off of that season of my life. Like getting to be that kid again. The first time I stuck a piece of copper wire into a silver nitrate solution and watched the silver come out of solution like magic, I was hooked. That was almost eleven years ago.
@@sreetips I wish I could set a lab up here but the permits I would need to get from local government etc would be super expensive and difficult to obtain.
On Aug 14th 2020 the value of that 1551 grams of silver was $1334.91 USD. I'd love to see a breakdown of the costs for impure materials, chemicals, electricity, the costs associated with casting it into bars, and the cost of safely disposing of waste.
FANTASTIC. What would the situation be if you start the process with a .999 bar? Would would need to loose the entire bar in transmutation. Please forgive my ignorance. This was my introduction to this possibility THANK YOU MUCH for the share
Do you ever pluck any of those gorgeous big crystals out from the bowl with tweezers or something before dumping the whole lot to preserve some nice specimens?
I wish I was able to take a high res photo of that cell! that is phenomenal! with enough lighting you could take a very interesting overhead photo. Thanks for the video!
Chandler Morris she finds silver jewelry, flatware, bowls and other sterling silver. I don’t “melt in down” but rather I dissolve it in nitric acid and separate the silver from the copper that’s alloyed with the silver. Then I precipitate the silver on copper metal, collect the resulting silver powder, and melt the 99% pure silver powder into shot that I use as feed stock for my electrolytic silver cell. In the cell all remaining impurities are remove by the cell and I end up with absolutely pure elemental silver metal. Close to five nines fine. That’s 99,999 parts per one hundred thousand
@@sreetips So as a person who frequents this side of UA-cam I have to ask "What got you to the point of your metal working ability?" Where did you start in this line of business?
My wife sold scrap gold to a guy at the flea market. She bought it at yard sales. Made a nice profit until I discovered he was giving her $150 for $500 worth of metal. After that we began selling the scrap on eBay ourselves. Did well for several years. Then in 2010 I began to wonder what folks were doing with the scrap gold that I sold them. Started snooping around about learning to refine it myself. But there was nothing. No books, no magazines, no periodicals, no information at all. UA-cam was new and there were videos with bits and pieces. But they left out critical details and directed you to a web site for a fee to get the rest. Then I stumbled onto the goldrefiningforum.com my user name there is kadriver. With the help of those guys i began to learn. A year later I posted my first refining video on UA-cam. Then forgot about it. A year later while surfing the web I came across my video. To my astonishment it had 92k views and my channel had 1600 subscribers. I realized that I had struck digital gold. But that it would only pay off if I gave it all away. Most refiners would rather take their refining secrets to the grave. But I decided to make videos with as much detail as I could, remembering how difficult it was to learn and how nice it would have been to have videos, like mine, available to view back when I was learning. The rest is history. Documented for all to see, enjoy, and learn from, without anything left to the imagination. To borrow a quote from General George S Patton, “I have precisely the right instrument, at precisely the right moment in time at precisely the right place. An opportunity like this may not happen again for another thousand years!” What a ride. And that’s how I got started at all this.
Wow this guy is smart af he def has some chemistry classes under his belt would love to learn this stuff im pretty sure hes taking that silver shot from old electronics and turning it into clean sliver bars most likely what a genius.

4:19 just an idea, you could easily make awesome epoxy resin jewellery by adding those crystals inside and some colouring that matches the color of the blue liquid.
That’s a great idea
I don't know how I ended up watching this but it was awesome 😎
