After Dissolving ALL the foils you might notice a small amount of

inductors, caps and transistors that wormed their way into the final
process. This is normal. 

Simply Filter again using a long neck funnel and a tall flask.  The
resulting solution should be a Deep and bright golden yellow..

Step 10: Testing Your Solution for Gold.
Ok, this is the exciting part and one where you get to see some real
chemistry at work..
you will need:

Stannous cloride created earlier, 1 coffee filter paper, 2 pipettes or

glass droppers.

Simply place 1 dot of recovered solution on a piece of filer paper, 

Next place one drop of your stannous cloride on the other. The
resulting reaction should turn purple.

If your did CONGRADS you have created AURIC Cloride  Or Aucl3

a gold bearing solution.   If your test drop didnt turn purple, add a
little more tin to your stannous cloride and heat gently with a alcohol
burner and BOROsiicate test tube.  Repeat Test.

depending on how much gold is in your solution it may appear

black.

Step 11: Recovering Your Gold.
Recovering your gold in solution is one of the Coolest steps.

Whats needed,  a plastic spoon, and the sodium Bisulfate or

Stumpout.

Simply add very small amounts of stumpout,   Your Mixture should

start to look like the pictures I have provided. This is caused by the
SO2 Gas which acts to chemically displace the gold in solution.

When the reaction has finished you will have driven out a majority
of the chlorine, and replaced it with Sulfur.  Any gold which was
trapped in the solution has now be come a brown precipitate at the
bottom of your beaker.

Retest with Stannous chloride, if your reaction still turns purple you
need to add more stumpout.

It will take appox 10 hours for the gold to competely settle,  the
solution should be clear at this point.

Step 12: Melting
OK this is the last stop, At this point you have drained off the last ot
the solution with your pipette the bottom of your beaker should be
coated with what looks like dried cinnamon.

THATS PURE GOLD.   Put that powder onto a fire brick that has
been treated with a flux material like borax.  Melt the borax till it
becomes glassy.   Apply your powder,

Heat with a MAPP torch or something more aggressive, careful not

to blow your powder off the firebrick.

TADA Pure 24Karat gold. 

TO date I have used this process to recover approx 1 pound of gold

from computer chips and the like.

Enjoy....
