[QUOTE="AtomRat, post: 203747, member: 3111"] Flail mill and shaker table is the way to go with the initial sorting, I'd personally then test between results of smelting and aquaregia and see which one yields the best result over 3 - 5 of these tests. You can make the nitric at home in small quantities with patience and simple ingredients. Youtube NurdRage for a brief example on the subject. If I don't have the choice of aqua regia I'd try and smelt any microscopic particles and let gravity do the work with a good flux mix like mentioned previously but large scale 5kg crucible. Without aqua regia / cyanide you can't extract the gold salts that may be in there and may find it not to be worth the effort. There's a post on the forum about a new milling technique for ore to extract 99% gold down to microns that you may want to read up on. 'Breakthrough design' [/QUOTE]
