FeCl3 Mk 2
We have cooked up two new batches of Ferric Chloride. One using AMD from Wheal Jane tailings and the other using a culture from Kasese, Uganda. The baume of both is still low (16 and 20 respectively) but having done a 30 second test with a copper strip the Ferric is definitely working, tarnishing the copper significantly. It will be interesting to do some longer tests on plates to see how it performs. We have a new 5l batch on the go so Mk3 will be here soon! |
