I have dyshidrotic eczema, it's basically a rare form of eczema that causes small blisters on you hands and feet. I often get infections from it, given my line of work. This type of eczema can last months at a time. It's actually a big part of my VA disability, since I started to get it when I was active duty. Anyways, back on topic. When I have break outs, I take epsom salt baths to help with infections and to sooth my skin. Since epsom salt is also an astringent, it helps cure the infections, and it helps with my very irritated skin. I love epsom salt. Now it's nice to know that in a pinch I can just heat some up and stay hydrated, lol, you know in the event there is an apocalypse.

A common trick when welding and brazing cast iron is to cover the piece with fire resistant blankets to make it cool down at a slower rate to avoid cracking, and I'm thinking that it might work for the glassware in the heating mantle as well. Of course it wouldn't work here because of the huge rock you made, but maybe it's worth trying in another experiment. You should be able to find the blankets relatively cheap just as a fire blanket that you can have at home to put out fires and 350C shouldn't be any trouble at all for a blanket like that.

I believe the contamination when the water became murky and you began to experience the sulfur smell came from the pipe you used to crush the chunk in. There was surely cutting oil residue at the least but likely plenty left from when the threads were cut into the cap and the pipe. Unless you cleaned well with acetone this may be what happened.

Especially with podcasts I'm pretty sure there have been a few that I listened to with audible for at least 6 months if not longer than a year consistently as main sponsor.

You could probably measure the degree of hydration of the first batch of extracted salt by comparing the weight of the salt before and after? Additionally, my experience with using blenders to break down solid chunks/objects is that the object needs to be subjected to some kind of stress (or not be held together particularly strongly) first. Sometimes using a little water (though it would be counter productive in this case) can help, other times you need to whack at it a little to break up the hard, outer covering (particularly if the outer covering is smooth or has some kind of binder holding it together) or introduce microstresses into the object.

Drywall (sheetrock) often has chemically bound water in the dry chalky center portion. Especially certain fire rated types of drywall. When it is heated the water is chemically released, creating steam. The drywall will not get hot enough to allow the flame to spread to the other side of the wall until the water has boiled away.

This is so interesting. Makes you wonder how much water is bound in solid things on other planets!
