Metal from Trap Water
by Barry Carter
In 1996 I introduced Jim to a gentleman
named Dan. Dan was 76 years old at the time and had been mining off and on since he was twenty years
old.
In 1998 Jim, Dan and I formed an
informal partnership to make trap water ORMUS into metal. Based on information that I provided to Jim from the
work of David Hudson and the Essene, Jim developed a very unique and innovative process to convert the ORMUS in
magnetic trap water into metal.
The final step in this process was to
bubble the microwaved and chemically treated ORMUS water vapor through molten lead. If you do this with
ordinary water vapor the molten lead will literally explode out of the pan on contact with the water vapor.
Fortunately this did not happen with the ORMUS water vapor.
After about a half hour of
bubbling this vapor through the lead the lead would harden. In other words,
its melting point became higher than the heating element could heat it. When you alloy lead with other
metals you generally raise the melting point of the lead alloy.
You can listen to Dan describing this
process at:

We got most of the lead from local tire
stores where it is crimped onto the wheel to balance the tires. A small amount of the lead may have come from
fishing weights. You can see a picture of fishing weights and wheel balancing lead weights at:

The wheel weights are on the right in
the picture.
These wheel weights also contain about
5% antimony. According to a US Government document titled "Stocks and Flows of Lead-Based Wheel Weights in
the United States": "Virtually all wheel-weight lead, actually an alloy containing
approximately 5 percent antimony, is recovered from recycled automobile batteries."
The antimony is used to harden the lead
so it is less malleable and less breakable.
The melting point of lead is 621 degrees
Fahrenheit (327 degrees Celsius). The melting point of antimony is 1167 degrees Fahrenheit (630 degrees
Celsius). Gold and all of the platinum group metals have higher melting points than lead and
antimony.
The melting temperature of the lead
alloy rises when it is alloyed with other metals with a higher melting point. Gold, which has a melting
temperature of 1945 degrees Fahrenheit (1063 degrees Celsius) has the lowest melting temperature of any of the
precious metals except silver which is lighter than lead.
On our first three day run using about
ten gallons of trap water (which would have weighed a bit over eighty pounds) we made seven of these lead alloy
plates. The total weight of these seven plates was 114.75 pounds.
You can see both sides of the seventh
lead plate at:

This lead plate weighed 22.9 pounds
before it was drilled for an assay sample.
We took four of the seven lead "plates"
that we made to a assayer in Idaho. These
four plates weighed 60.65 pounds. The assayer said that these lead plates had the crystallization patterns of
the platinates and had a specific gravity that ranged from 2% to 5% more than lead alone. The average was
2.68%. This means that the total weight of these four plates was 1.6275 pounds more than it would have been if
they were lead alone.
This does not mean that only 1.6275
pounds of the total weight was precious metal. The portion of precious metal would be much greater than that
because the 2.68% greater weight is how much more they weighed than the specific gravity of lead would
indicate. The exact percentage of precious metal would vary according to which of the precious metals were
present.
Following is a chart of the specific
gravity of lead and the ORMUS elements that have a specific gravity greater than lead in their metallic
form:

The third column is how much heavier
than lead the respective precious metals are.
If roughly half of the lead alloy plate
was palladium this would account for the extra mass but smaller percentages of the other precious metals would
also account for the extra mass.
If half of the total weight of the seven
plates was palladium from the trap water the palladium would have weighed over 50 pounds. I think that it is
more likely that iridium and gold were the main precious metals in the mix since these two elements repel from
magnetic fields in the ORMUS state more than the other ORMUS elements.
It is reasonable to presume that ten
pounds of the full weight of the seven plates is iridium and/or gold with lesser portions of the other precious
metals. If ten pounds of the precious metals came out of eighty pounds of trap water this would mean that we
were getting about one pound of metal out of each gallon of trap water.
In addition to the first run of seven
metal plates Dan and Jim did two more runs. I think the first of these runs was done with trap water and the
second was done with a neutralized acid extract from crushed rock. The second run was ten plates and the third
run was four plates. You can see a picture of these metal plates at:

There is another characteristic of lead
that distinguishes it from other metals. When lead was more commonly used people would often refer to a dull
sound as a leaden sound.
I have recorded a video that illustrates
the difference between the sound of lead and the sound of the lead/precious metal alloy in one of the plates
that we made. You can view this video at:
http://www.OrmusMinerals.com/leadplatesounds.wmv
In the video, the piece of metal on the
right was made by bubbling the vapor of partially converted trap water through
molten lead from wheel weights.
The piece of metal in the center is an
ordinary lead wheel weight.
The piece of metal on the left was made
by bubbling the vapor of partially converted rock source ORMUS liquid through molten
lead from wheel weights.
Notice the sound as I strike each of
these pieces.
The metal on the left has a dull leaden
sound much like the sound of the wheel weight in the center.
The piece of metal on the right has a
much more musical sound like the sound of metals other than lead.
There are many ways to identify the
different elements. Light spectroscopy has only been used for this purpose since the early 19th century. Before
the advent of spectroscopy most of the precious metal elements were isolated chemically and identified by their
physical properties and their chemical reactions.
Though we did not get spectroscopic
identification of the precious metals in the plates that Jim made, there are other ways to tell that they are
present. I have discussed three of these ways in this article.
First, the treated trap water vapor
significantly raised the melting point of the lead.
Second, the resulting metal plates have
a specific gravity 2% to 5% higher than one would get with lead alone.
Third, the trap water alloy plates ring
when struck unlike the leaden sound you get when striking lead alone.
Since these metal plates were made eight
years ago enough time has surely passed for the full conversion from ORMUS to metal. I have three of these
plates in my possession right now and I will look into getting some assays on them as soon as I figure out how
to go about it.
