[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 640272, member: 4728"] I once had a lot of fine mustard gold in crushings. They were almost impossible to pan out so I put the crushings in a Hornady cartridge case cleaner with a little water and very small amount of mercury. Turned on the case cleaner and let it run run for about a day and then panned everything off and found it quite easy to recover the mercury and gold amalgam. The vibrating case cleaner had ensured that the small amount of mercury had permeated every part of the crushings and scoured the fine gold into the amalgam. When I replanned the crushing s I could see none of the fine mustard gold left so I was fairly happy that most had been recovered. [/QUOTE]
