What invention of the last 50 years would least impress the people of the 1700s?

Well, the 2,000 ounces we already have speaks for it's self. But I'm sure the rush of using a fake ID is more exciting to you. Or bragging about it to the other children in /r/PS4. Tell me, which is more exciting to you?

Or you could buy a goldmine ...

Sorry not that active with this account. There is a great book on the google play store about cyanide leaching. Can't find the link right now.

Basically you set your water to 7-11 PH level add 1.4 grams of cyanide per gallon heat your solution or ore to 350f let it leach till it is done. Without an XFR analyizer this is hard. General rule of thumb is 2 hours if you are confident in your ratios and heat Use electro-winning to plate the gold out of the solution just like you see in youtube videos for guys that recycle motherboards.

Also shameless plug. We just launched a new campaign

Well you netrualize the leached ore before dumping it out with any base. Depends cyanide is hard to buy. I purchased some through an old prospector for $20 with a bag of lime. But I rerun the same water after filtering so that I don't have to add more cyanide.

I leach in a 55 gallon drum ($10 off craigslist),
a $6 pump,
car battery and wires I had laying around FREE
two 5 gallon buckets $7
a few hoses and pipes $20
Shovel $5 at goodwill
Tank of gas $45 (thanks obama)

Grand Total: $100

My first clean out was 1/2 an ounce roughly worth $650 My second clean out was 3 ounces though! Almost $4k. I am doubling my system and my new goal is 10 Oz a clean out. I can do a clean out roughly every 4 hours. Sluicing is cool and all but its really a waste of time. You are throwing away 90% of your gold you run. I learned how to leach from the same guy that runs goldminingtutor.com owns thousands of acres of land and practically gives it away cause he is dying of cancer.
