Turning old jewelry into pure gold bars

Follow-up video on NileBlue (my second channel):    • Cleaning up my gold waste

I originally thought that it was going to just be some gold plated stuff, but it turned out to be quite a bit of gold. I was able to purify out all of the gold and then melt them down into some small 24K pure gold bars.
