[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 12520, member: 487"] Cool, glad it worked. I'm pretty keen to try on small amounts too, would probably only test 30g of suspected ore though. Then decide whether to do more or not, that's just me though. There is a lab supplies company in Sydney which sells Nitric Acid in small amounts. Actually they have most of the stuff for this experiment. Ezylab I think. Just need to supply drivers licence. They may know of a company in VIC as shipping hazardous materials can be expensive. I was under the impression that Pyrite had to be baked before extraction to release Sulpher Dioxide, I guess the Peroxide would do the oxidising in this case. Some very nasty gasses in this experiment, not too bad if very careful though. Good result. [/QUOTE]
