TURN LEAD INTO SILVER - Using the Parkes Process |ask Jeff Williams

In this video we will show you how to effectively turn Lead into Silver using the Parkes process.
When zinc is added to liquid lead that contains silver as a contaminant, the silver migrates into the zinc.

The zinc remains in a separate layer and is easily removed. The zinc-silver solution is then heated until the zinc vaporizes, leaving nearly pure silver behind.
Cupellation can also be used for the removal of Zinc

If gold is present in the liquid lead, it can also be removed and isolated by the same process.

We use iron from a skillet to aid in oxidation of lead sulfide which pulls the sulfur from the lead sulfide and creates Sulfur Dioxide.
The carbon from the charcoal is added to reduce it down to lead matte all in one step
