Gold Mon-atoms 1week
production process time
August Dunning
Double Flask Salt Extraction Method
This is a method of achieving the green dragon state of monatomic green gold
chloride in about 5 to 7 days. It exploits material characteristics in a way to use crystals to extract and
separate the monatoms of gold in strong acid solutions. It was observed that salt
crystallization in heavily salted gold-acid solutions is a means to collect and separate monatoms of gold from gold clusters still in solution. This realization, that the
monatoms are in the crystals, achieves a long sought after solution to the
problem of long term boiling and salting in methods to this date.
DAY
1
1 Perform 1st metal fusion on gold metal utilizing sodium peroxide and
sodium hydroxide in a zirconium crucible. The proportions are in the Hudson patent. This step requires
· An outdoor
turkey cooker with a propane tank and valve setup to have high pressure delivery to the cooker burner.
· A zirconium
crucible 3in dia.
· Stainless
steel long tongs
· Furnace
gloves
a. Mix the fusion
chemicals
b. Light burner adjust to a strong
blue flame
c. Using the furnace gloves,
hold the crucible with the tongs so you can lower it into the flame without spilling it.
d. In about a minute the ingredients
start to melt, in 5 - 10 minutes to a liquid that is a glowing wine red in color. Agitate to mix the
ingredients gently for 5 more minutes
e. Keep in the glowing red
state for 3 - 5minutes
f. Remove from heat and
set aside to cool
g. Prepare a 1000 milliliter
beaker with 6 molar HCl. Approximately 3 parts HCl
with 1 part water in a well ventilated location, fume hood, or outside. This step generates large amounts of
noxious gas
h. When cool, gently drop the
zirconium crucible with the hardened cake of fused materials into the prepared beaker.
i. Try NOT to
allow the steel tongs to submerge into the HCl or you will introduce Iron into
the solution. Its bad enough you have to get rid of the zirconium contamination from the crucible in a later
step, but it’s a lot easier than getting rid of Iron.
j. Use a Teflon coated
stir rod to push the crucible into the HCl to dissolve the cake.
k. When dissolved proceed to step
2
2 Perform Lye boil on dissolved first fusion cake
In this step you will perform a 12 hour dis-aggregation step
in a deep base condition. This step requires
· 2
polypropylene 2 quart juice jugs found at a grocery store with lids
· A 5 gallon pot
for boiling
·
Ovenbricks for supporting the jugs in the 5 gallon pot when filled with
water
· SAFETY
GLASSES
· pH meter
· A propane
burner, like a stove top burner, could be electric
· Purified water
or distilled water
· Sodium
hydroxide
a. fill the two polypropylene jugs 1/3 full with distilled water in the 5 gallon boiling
pot.
b. pour half of the dissolved fusion
cake solution into each jug
c. mix a saturated solution of
sodium hydroxide in distilled water
d. use the pH meter to monitor the
conversion of deep acid to deep base
e. USE CAUTION ADDING SODIUM
HYDROXIDE TO DEEP ACID. TOO MUCH AT A TIME WILL CAUSE A CHEMICAL FOUNTAIN TO SPRAY MATERIALS OUT OF THE
JUGS.
f. Adjust the pH to 11 -
12
g. Put the lids on the
jugs
h. Place bricks on the bottom
of the boil pot, put the jugs of pH adjusted solution in the boil pot, place bricks around the jugs to keep
them upright
i. Fill the boil
pot with enough water to put the solutions at the same level.
j. Adjust the water to
just below the boiling point. Steam will be rising off of the boiling pot water but the water will not be
boiling. You will find that a very small blue flame like a quarter inch flame, is about right, but this
should be done in a place protected from draft to keep the flame lit
k. Boil over night or for 12
hours

3 Precipitating the gold solution
This step requires
· A pH
meter.
·
HCl
· Safety
glasses
· Large 2500 ml
beaker
· 2-4 4000ml
erhlemeyer flasks
· Spin table
·
pH meter holder to keep the meter in the solution( a convenience, not a
necessity, but it makes adding acid a lot easier having two free hands.
a. place a 2500 ml beaker on
the magnetic spin table, place a mag stirrer in the beaker
b. Pour in 1000ml of the lye
solution from the previous 12 hour boil.
c. Add HCl slowly until pH 7 is achieved.
d. Transfer adjusted solution to a
4000ml flask, cover the top, set aside to react. A milky solution will occur over
a half hour or so as the gold is taken out of solution as a gold cluster hydroxide flocculant
e. Continue until all the lye
boil is converted and sitting in covered 4000ml flasks
f. Over about a 24 hours most of the flocculant will fall. Collect it and
set the natant water aside to collect the ultra fine particles still in
suspension
g. Pour off the top water,
concentrate the precipitate into a slurry
h. Pour the slurry onto a
polypropylene dish or fruit dehydrator and let evaporate in a protected place until completely dry
DAY 4 -

4 Perform a 2nd fusion on the precipitate
This step is identical to the 1st fusion, use all
the precipitate with the same amount of sodium peroxide and sodium hydroxide as in the first step. Dissolve
cake in 6M HCl, set aside. Do not perform a lye boil
5 Perform salted boiling step to separate monatoms
of gold in salt
This step utilizes the replacement ion technique. Sodium is almost the same size as an ion
of gold as found in salt. It is noted that gold metal atoms loose half their radius when converted to the
ion, because of that, gold and sodium both will be gathered by chlorine into crystals of salt.
This is the new insite: gold monatoms are always being captured into salt, by taking the salt from the reducing
solution, it is available for easy reduction to the brown monatomic
hydroxide.
This step requires
· Sodium
hydroxide
· Purified
water
·
HCl
· Two burner
counter top electric burner set
· Two 4000 ml
flasks
· Containers to
mix 6M salted HCl
a. convert half a gallon of HCl to pH 7 using Sodium hydroxide. This
produces a heavily dissolved NaCl salted water solution.
b. Mix 1500ml spectrachem hydrochloric acid (found at ace hardware) with 1500ml salted water solution into
a 4000ml flask
c. Carefully pour all the
contents of the second fusion melt into the 4000ml flask.
REMOVAL OF ZIRCONIUM
At this point you need to remove the zirconium
load from the solution. Zirconium precipitates out as an oxide at very deep acid, ph 3-4. in pH 1-3 it will be a dark dust, or loose mass.
1 Bring solution in step 5,c to just
under boil for 6 hours to reduce.
2 Add 1000ml distilled water,
3 Boil 3 hours to return all salt into solution
4 Cool, a dusting will occur on the bottom of the flask
5 Pour off top water to remove uncontaminated fluid from the
precipitated contaminant. For very clean solutions, slowly drip filter top water solution through quartz
filters to remove 99% or greater solids.
RETURN TO DOUBLE FLASK METHOD
The color of the solution will be dark
yellow orange
a. Boil to reduce
the solution to a saturated state. It will lighten in color over a few hours. Salt will be produced out of
solution.
The resulting crystals after zirconium removal will be very sharp and crisp cubical
b. Continue to boil
until reduced to 1/3 volume or to approx 1000ml
c. Prepare another
4000ml flask on the second burner with 1000ml salted water solution, 1000ml spectrachem HCl.\
d. Pour the 1000ml of
reduced gold solution into the second 4000ml flask and return to boil being careful not to transfer the
salts.
e. In the first
flask with separated salts, add 1000ml salted solution, 1000ml spectrachem HCL
and return to boil
f. The
solution should be decidedly pale green, turning darker as it is reduced.
g. Continue with
this double flask method until all the dissolved gold is converted into salts and concentrated as green
dragon
Precipitate the green solutions to pH7 to produce the brown monatomic noble metal
hydroxide.
