Gday jethro,
Since your not keen on giving it a go I thought I do it for you and see what happens in the results and share it here too.
Keeping details to an absolute minimum, do NOT attempt this at home if you dont know what youre doing, without correct chemical safety gear or ventilation using a fume hood / outdoors.
Please do not troll with safety comments.
Unfortunately, this will just be a test by eye and result as I can't find my scales anywhere to tell differences before and after reactions.
So, I've ground some ore from a mine, high in sulfide content. It was already party crushed and i couldnt find a large but as well to do the test on. Mabey later if requested. You can see the two grades I have; fine dust and 5mm sized lets say.
The first test is seeing the reaction of just H202 ( Hydrogen Peroxide, no, not hair bleach ). The finer dust is bubbling away while the large particles have a slow bubble rate for now.
Ill leave these until I feel the reaction is complete, which should be a rather dark brown goo ( could take 2 weeks ). I've only added a small amount for now just in case the reaction was unexpected, but will add more to it as it evaporates to keep the reaction going.
After this will be a thorough clean with water and then HCl treatment and reaction test.
