That’s cool thank you for that info

Stick a piece of iron in it. The copper changes places with the iron. I use an old brake rotor to get the copper out of 8 gallons of copper sulfate electrolyte at a time. I have other uses for the iron sulfate later on.

Thanks vibe does the iron put on a good show I new iron would work but I knew aluminum puts on a good show for the videos I have already processed all my copper sulphate with aluminum but I will keep it in mind for the future. Question though what do you use the iron sulfate for?

@Cloudranger239 Iron sulfate is commonly known as Copperas, and is used to drop gold from solution during the refining process. Especially from the first "dirty" drop.. I have used the copper sulfate electrolysis parting process for dissolving the base metals from underneath the gold plating in hobby gold recovery from scrap electronics connector pins. As for putting on a good show? The iron will look to grow copper on the surface, much like it grows on the cathode of the parting cell.

It turned out to be copper carbonate

I think if you cut the foil into small pieces it will work better
