All I wanted was a 2kg bar of gold to call my own instead gawd with his sense of hunoir gives me a mountain of platinum.
This is a continuation of my past summer project at the waah plant. I have isolated the source of the platinum to two different sources.
That black sand at the wash plant contains a cosiderable amount of platinum but the mother load is in the rock of the out crop located at the pit.
The rock samples taken from the outcrop initially look black but after pulverising are really green in color.
The pulverised rock has visible inclusions of platinum along with some sort of sulphide mineral insoluble in both HCL and AR none magnetic to boot.
New learning curve coming up on sulphide minerals.
But the constant use of grey matter keeps it interesting.
Use of smartphone makes it difficult to post pictures. If you look at some of my back posts there are pictures of the wash plant and out crop.
