First you need to prepare a dilute lye solution. Label an eyedropper bottle or squirt bottle "Lye-poison"
so the bottle will not confused with something else. Work in a sink so that any spills will be
contained. Lye gives off eye-stinging fumes when mixed with water. To avoid inhaling fumes, hold your
breath and wear goggles while doing the following procedure.
Working over a sink, put 8 teaspoons of distilled water in a sturdy glass then stir in 1 teaspoon of lye.
Stir until the lye is dissolved. Heat will be generated as the lye dissolves and the glass may get fairly
hot. You may want to close your eyes to avoid eye-stinging fumes, taking a peek periodically.
Pour the lye solution into a labeled eyedropper bottle or squirt bottle.
If you are using pH paper, tear off several 1/4" pieces and put them on a piece of white paper on a plate.
For the best accuracy, recalibrate the pH paper throughout the day with changes in temperature and humidity, as
well as day-to-day. Buffer solutions of pH 4, 7 and 10 will help with this. Sources of pH buffer
solutions are listed near the end of this document under LAB SUPPLIES.
If you are using dried sea minerals, mix 1/2 cup of dry material with 2 cups of distilled water. This
makes sea water. Now proceed as described below:
1. First, you might want to pour the sea water through a coffee filter to remove any scum.
2. If the starting material does not contain magnesium hydroxide (sea water does contain magnesium
hydroxide), add some, or add a teaspoon of Epsom salts per gallon of water.
3. Pour the sea water into a stainless steel pot. Slowly, drop-by-drop, add the lye solution WHILE STIRRING.
Every ten drops or so, test the pH. You might want to take at least 3 to 5 samples from different regions of
the liquid. If you are using pH paper, the goal is to bring the pH up to 9.5, then stop to be on the safe side.
If you are using a pH meter, stop just before you get to pH 10.78.
A white precipitate which includes m-state elements will form.
CAUTION: You must proceed slowly and patiently so that you do not exceed pH 10.78 with a meter or pH 9.5
with pH paper. If you go higher than pH 10.78, you might get a "Gilcrest precipitate" of toxic heavy metals. It
is alleged that the Dead Sea salt water does not produce any Gilcrest precipitate. This has not been proven and
should not be assumed.
4. Once you are at the correct pH, stop.
5. Pour the solution into a clean glass jar or test tube.
6. The white precipitate (slurry) slowly settles on the bottom of the jar. Let the slurry settle overnight.
If metals or other toxins have been ruled out by prior testing of your starting material, the slurry is
probably mostly calcium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, lye, and a small amount of m-state.
You can speed this settling process with a centrifuge, which forces the precipitate to settle rapidly.
Inexpensive second-hand centrifuges may be found at American Science and Surplus, http://www.sciplus.com.
7. Using a large syringe (or siphon), remove the liquid above the slurry.
8. Add distilled water to the precipitate (filling the jar), stir thoroughly, and let it settle again for at
least 4 to 5 hours, preferably overnight.
9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 at least three times to thoroughly wash the precipitate. This should remove almost
all of the lye. The remaining lye can be neutralized with HCl or distilled white vinegar as well. Washing three
times is intended to reduce the dissolved "impurities" (like salt, for example) by 87.5%. Four washes would
provide a 93.75% reduction, five washes a 96.875% reduction, and so on.
At this point, the precipitate is likely to contain some m-state, milk of magnesia Mg(OH)2, calcium, and
perhaps some impurities.
Pour the precipitate and water into a stainless steel pot on a stove burner. A gas burner is preferred over
electric because any magnetic fields from the electric burner may drive off some of the m-state material. Cover
the pot with a lid to contain the m-state, and boil the solution for 5 minutes to sterilize it. Be careful not
to spill the hot solution! Let it cool back to room temperature and recheck the pH to make sure it hasn't
exceeded pH 9.
DISCUSSION: WHEN TO BOIL THE SOLUTION
In this document, we suggested that you not boil the solution
until you have made the washed precipitate. However, boiling can be done earlier in the procedure with certain
advantages. Here are four times that boiling could be done, with a discussion of the pros and cons of each:
1. Boil before adding lye solution.
PROS: Faster reaction, faster precipitation. CONS: You may spill the hot lye solution. You may inhale
fumes.
2. Boil while adding lye solution.
PROS: Faster reaction, faster precipitation. CONS: You may spill the hot lye solution. You may inhale fumes.
Danger of lye spurting out of pot. Not recommended.
3. Boil and cool after adding lye solution.
PROS: No danger of inhaling fumes. Little danger of spilling hot lye solution. CONS: Slower reaction, slower
precipitation.
4. Boil the washed precipitate (recommended).
PROS: No danger of inhaling fumes. No danger of spilling hot lye solution. pH is unlikely to change after
boiling because the reaction has already taken place. CONS: Slower reaction, slower precipitation. If safety is
the main issue, this seems to be the best method.
Caution: If you boil the solution on an electric burner,
the magnetic field in the burner may "blow off" some of the m-state materials, resulting in a small yield. This
can be minimized by adding a source of sodium (such as sodium hydroxide or salt) to the solution before
boiling.
Since sea water contains sodium in salt, none of the boiling methods will be a problem with sea water.
However, if you are starting with low-sodium fresh water, add a sodium source (such as table salt or lye
solution) before boiling.
Once the precipitate and water have been sterilized, the next step is required to concentrate the
m-state.
HOW TO PURIFY YOUR PRECIPITATE
The precipitate made from sea water contains
milk of magnesia (Mg(OH)2), which precipitates approximately around the same pH range that m-state does.
Here are four methods to separate Mg(OH)2 from m-state:
[Note - These methods were not well tested and do not always work as suggested. The
second method seems to work best. The "purification" step is not necessary to get good ORMUS
precipitate.]
METHOD 1
1. Suppose you just made a precipitate by adding lye solution to
sea water. The precipitate is m-state mixed with Mg(OH)2.
2. Use a syringe to remove the liquid over the precipitate, and discard the liquid. This leaves
only the m-state/Mg(OH)2 precipitate.
3. To the wet precipitate, add hydrochloric acid (HCl) until you reduce the pH to 1.0 - 3.5. You
can use muriatic acid (31% HCl) from a hardware store, but lab-grade HCl is less likely to be contaminated.
A safe alternative to HCl is distilled white vinegar.
4. The white colloidal precipitate should dissolve, leaving a clear solution.
5. Add lye solution VERY SLOWLY drop-by-drop to bring the pH back up to 8.5 - 8.7. The precipitate
that forms should be m-state mostly free of Mg(OH)2 (because m-state precipitates in this pH range, and
Mg(OH)2 does not precipitate until pH 9.)
Note that your total yield may be diminished because you are not going past pH 8.7.
6. Remove the liquid above the precipitate, and wash the precipitate. It should be mostly
m-state.
METHOD 2
This procedure removes the Mg(OH)2 by dissolving it below pH 9.
First get some HCl (or muriatic acid) and coffee filters. A safer alternative to HCl is distilled white
vinegar.
1. Dry the precipitate in a dark oven at about 275 degrees F for one or two hours. This forms a
dry powder.
2. Take the dry powder and pulverize out any clumps.
3. In a glass container, cover the powder with some distilled water. For example, one liter of
water for one cup of powder.
4. Add HCl or distilled white vinegar drop-by-drop to bring the pH to 5 or 6.
5. Shake the bottle and let it sit overnight. The dried m-state should not dissolve at that pH,
but the Mg(OH)2 should dissolve.
6. The next day, after all the Mg(OH)2 has dissolved, pour everything into filter paper.
7. Wash the powder collected in the filter paper several times with distilled water to remove any
residual traces of HCl or vinegar.
8. The washed powder may be oven-dried again at about 275 degrees F, and you should have m-state powder
free of Mg(OH)2.
METHOD 3
1. Dry the original precipitate at about 200 degrees F.
2. Mix the resulting powder with distilled white vinegar or 30% HCl. Everything which does not dissolve
in m-state. This will be quite a small amount if you start with sea water. (If you mix pure HCl with
distilled water, remember: ADD ACID TO WATER, NEVER ADD WATER TO ACID).
3. Measure the amount of HCl/m-state solution (or vinegar/m-state solution).
4. Add distilled water to the HCl/m-state solution. Add an amount of water that is at least ten times
the amount of HCl/m-state solution. (You may substitute distilled white vinegar for HCl).
5. Filter the solution through 5 layers of coffee filters.
6. Wash the powder at least three times in a large amount of distilled water.
METHOD 4
1. Starting with clean wet precipitate, add lye to bring the pH up
to 12. The m-state precipitate will dissolve, but magnesium hydroxide and the Gilcrest precipitate
will not.
2. Filter out the precipitate.
3. To the remaining liquid containing only m-state, add HCl or distilled white vinegar drop-by-drop
until the pH reaches 8.5.
4. Add lye solution drop-by-drop to bring the pH back up to 10.78. The resulting precipitate
should be only m-state.
5. Wash the precipitate as described earlier.
6. To be safe, check the pH of the precipitate slurry. It should be 9 or less before ingesting.
DRY METHOD
Please read
CAUTION!! and
WARNING!! before proceeding.
This method takes longer than the WET method. In some cases, it involves boiling lye for several hours,
which may spray some caustic solution around your work area. Please wear neoprene gloves, a PVC lab
apron, and eye goggles when you use this method. Sources for this safety clothing are listed near the end
of this document under LAB SUPPLIES.
Some people have reported adverse reactions to the WET method precipitate or powder. This may be due to the
Gilcrest precipitates which occur above pH 11.5. The DRY method removes the dangerous Gilcrest precipitates, so
it results in safer material.
EXTRA SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR THE DRY METHOD
12-cup coffee filters from a
grocery store.
Hydrochloric acid. You can use muriatic acid (31% HCl) from a hardware store, but lab-grade HCl is
less likely to be contaminated. Other acids can be used, but HCl will not harm the body if accidentally
ingested in weak solutions and in small amounts. You might prefer to use distilled white vinegar instead of
HCl. Although distilled white vinegar (acetic acid) is weaker than HCl, is it safer to work with.
Heavy plastic HDPE cottage cheese containers, 1 pint and 1 quart, to hold the coffee filters.
MAKING A HOLDER FOR THE COFFEE FILTERS
1. Start with a pint and a quart container for cottage cheese. Make sure the pint container will fit into
the quart container. The pint container should hang inside the lip of the quart container.
2. Across the bottom of the pint container, punch or drill several holes, 1/8" to 1/4" diameter, about
1/4" apart.
3. If the small container fits too tightly into the larger container, you may need to drill some
air-pressure equalization holes around the outside of the large container near the level of the bottom of
the small container. Otherwise the air pressure between the two containers will keep liquid from
draining from the coffee filters. When you use this filter, place the cottage cheese containers in a
stainless steel or glass container to catch any overflow. The lye water that you will be filtering
may damage counter tops or cabinets if it contacts them.
4. The coffee filters should fit nicely into the smaller top cottage-cheese container.
DRY METHOD STARTING MATERIALS
Generally start with dry material
such as sweepings from salt and alkali flats, rock powders, limestone, mineral salts, Isis or Etherium white
gold powder, volcanic ash, plant cinders, etc.
These are some materials that produce a lot of precipitate from the DRY method:
- Crushed, unheated limestone (Caution: agricultural grade powdered limestone from some sources contains
sufficient lead and/or arsenic to be a potential hazard)
- Golden Nectar trace mineral formula
- Etherium/Isis Gold powder
- Ancient Secrets Dead Sea Mineral Salts
- Masada salts (unscented)
DRY-METHOD PROCEDURE
Please read
CAUTION!! and
WARNING!! before proceeding.
First you need to prepare a dilute lye solution. Label an eyedropper bottle or squirt bottle
"Lye-poison" so the bottle will not confused with something else. Work in a sink so that any spills will
be contained. Lye gives off eye-stinging fumes when mixed with water. To avoid inhaling fumes, hold
your breath and wear goggles while doing the following procedure.
Working over a sink, put 8 teaspoons of distilled water in a sturdy glass then stir in 1 teaspoon of
lye. Stir until the lye is dissolved. Heat will be generated as the lye dissolves and the glass may
get fairly hot. You may want to close your eyes to avoid eye-stinging fumes, taking a peek
periodically.
Pour the lye solution into a labeled eyedropper bottle or squirt bottle.
If you are using pH paper, tear off several 1/4" pieces and put them on a piece of white paper on a plate
(as illustrated above). Now proceed as described below:
1. Grind the starting material to a fine powder.
2. Add 1:4 lye solution to cover the dry material with a thin layer.
3. Stir in some distilled water to cover the powder and lye by 2 inches.
4. Bring to a boil (this is best done outdoors or in an exhaust hood). The pH should be at or
slightly above 12. The lye brings the m-state elements into solution while leaving the Gilcrest
precipitates as solids.
NOTE: If you start with sea salt, you can omit the boiling step with its noxious fumes, and simply let
the solution sit for three days. Then go directly to Step 7. (Some other starting materials might also
react without boiling).
5. If you are boiling the solution, replace water as needed to maintain sufficient reactant volume.
6. Boil for several hours -- the longer the better -- in a closed container. The container may be
open if you add liquid as needed. Four hours should be sufficient for Etherium/Isis material.
7. Strain the slurry through 3 to 5 layers of coffee filters. You are removing the toxic elements
(Gilcrest precipitate) that precipitate above pH 11.5.
Save the liquid that passes through the filters. Most m-state present will be in solution in the
liquid.
8. While stirring the liquid, slowly add HCl or distilled white vinegar to bring the pH down to
8.5. A white precipitate forms which is partly m-state.
If you go too far, the pH will abruptly shift, and you will have to start over. If this happens
you must add lye quickly and bring the pH back up to 12.
9. Let the precipitate settle overnight.
10. Using a large syringe (or a siphon), remove the liquid above the slurry.
11. Add distilled water to the precipitate (filling the jar), stir thoroughly, and let it settle again
for at least 4 to 5 hours, preferably overnight.
12. Repeat steps 10 and 11 at least three times to thoroughly wash the precipitate. This removes
most traces of lye and HCl (or vinegar).
You'll get a wet, white precipitate (slurry) containing m-state elements. Check that the pH is 9
or less before ingesting. Some of the precipitate may be milk of magnesia or calcium. If you
wish, you can remove them using the precipitate purification procedures
described above.
BOILING-GOLD METHOD [The
BOILING GOLD METHOD has never worked for those who have tried it and we don't recommend its
use.]
Please read
CAUTION!! and
WARNING!! before proceeding.
This method produces pure gold ORMUS. With this method, you must boil some lye solution for one to two
weeks. This may spray some caustic solution around your working area. Please wear neoprene gloves,
a PVC lab apron, and eye goggles when you use this method. Sources for this safety clothing are noted
under LAB SUPPLIES near the end of this document.
EXTRA SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR THE BOILING-GOLD METHOD
Coffee
filters from a grocery store.
Hydrochloric acid (HCl). You can use muriatic acid (31% HCl) from a hardware store, but lab-grade HCl
is less likely to be contaminated. Instead of HCl, you might prefer to use distilled white vinegar (acetic
acid). Distilled white vinegar is weaker than HCl but is safer to use.
A stainless steel pot or glass pot will work, but stainless steel and glass are attacked by NaOH. Glass is
preferred over stainless steel.
A preferred container is a sealed Teflon® or HDPE bottle in a water bath in a crock pot. Please note
that a Teflon® bottle is NOT the same as a Teflon® coated aluminum container. Never
use aluminum or Teflon® coated aluminum containers and utensils because aluminum will react with acids like HCl
and alkalis like lye, and will poison you.
If you use a sealed Teflon® or HDPE bottle in a water bath fill it only half full with your lye and gold
then squeeze the bottle to eliminate most of the air above the liquid before you tighten the cap. This
will allow the bottle to expand as the liquid is heated.
PROCEDURE FOR THE BOILING-GOLD METHOD
1. Add 99.99% pure gold dust to a lye solution of pH 12 or more.
2. Boil the solution for two weeks in a CLOSED container. One week may be sufficient, but two
weeks will likely have a higher yield. Add water as needed. CAUTION: Do not inhale the vapors!
3. Strain the solution using the coffee filter holder described above. Save any remaining gold for future use.
4. Add HCl or distilled white vinegar to bring the pH down to pH 8.5. An off-white precipitate
will appear. Let it settle overnight.
5. Using a syringe, carefully suck out the liquid above the precipitate.
6. Add distilled water to the precipitate (filling the jar), stir thoroughly, and let it settle again
for at least 4 to 5 hours, preferably overnight.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 at least three times to thoroughly wash the precipitate.
APPENDIX
M-STATE STORAGE
Store m-state materials in
* Glass mason jars with wire-clamped glass lids and rubber gaskets
* Glass jars with plastic lids, or
* HDPE containers, which are stable in acid and alkali
Store m-state materials in the dark away from sunlight or ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light seems
to move some m-state materials toward a metallic state.
Because m-state materials are superconductors, they should be stored in glass or HDPE containers inside of
steel containers and away from moving magnetic fields. Put the glass or HDPE container (containing m-state)
inside a steel tin such as those used for Christmas cookies, gourmet popcorn or potato chips. If you intend to
transport m-state materials, it is best to nest three or four steel containers, one inside the other with
insulating material between, and place the glass or HDPE container inside the inmost steel container.
You may notice that your m-state materials have bubbles rising from them for a period of time after they are
made. We believe that these bubbles are m-state gas escaping. Some people have reported that the
m-state precipitate loses some of its effect as these bubbles leave. This off-gassing seems to be reduced
if the m-state is stored between room temperature and body temperature in a magnetically shielded
container. It is advisable not to refrigerate m-state materials. At least one researcher reports
that refrigerated m-state materials are likely to move toward a warmer place.
Since bacteria and mold can easily grow in m-state precipitate, it is best to sterilize any material which
you wish to store for long periods of time and to store it using water bath canning methods.
