If you take both sides you split in half, put them in a bucket with hot water and nitric acid, all silver go's to solution. Take your solution, use table salt or HCL drop the silver chloride then Lye/ sugar method to convert back to metal and melt. Keep vids coming Pete i enjoy em
@@GingerKing304 I think it's more for not wasting nitric on getting the silver out of these, take the silver you get from this and combine it with whatever else you have to refine. That way you can just use your nitric where you actually need it. That was my plan anyways.
I have used a paper shreader first, then I use a blender and finally a coffee grinder it's almost a fine powder, it then strips out the silver at much faster rate, when melting gold or silver be very careful as they both give off a arsenic gas.

Exactly!

Learn something new everytime I watch your videos. Thanks
Glad to hear it!
This was honestly way more than I expected :) My estimation would be less than 2 grams from about 200 CDs. Nice video, thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Pete great show as normal keep it up one easy way to part DVDS boil in water and it separates good work
Thanks for the tip!

oh ok
Even better!
yeah going to do some more soon watch this space.
very good lesson thanks pete
Glad you liked it!
I use a blender for cds. Then extract silve with nitric.
interesting
Sodium hydroxide 🙂
yeah thats the one lol. i had a mind blank
Thanks
No problem
Wow i thought the shiny part was aluminum
I'm re doing the video soon, some of the information is a bit wrong. But yes, it is defiantly silver.
How many CD did you use to refine this 6.42 gram of silver?
i cant remember, it was a while ago. all know is there was alot
@@prospectorpete More than 5 kg?
@@Nowang99 nah
Hi Pete, just wondered can you use this dunking in bleach method for silver plate items like cutlery etc to remove the silver?
it might work but ithink its too thick. maybe if u soak it
@@prospectorpete Thanks il try it, see what happens
@@damooooo good luck. Let me know how it goes
That would take forever. Use sulphuric acid and a battery takes seconds, reduce the solution with water and filter
could you heat with a hear gun
i wouldnt think so
Thumbs UP
thanks for watching
Why do you remove the silver?
to collect the silver
How many for cd?
theres no certain amount. you can do as many as you want
🔨⛏️ 👍🍻
thanks for watching
