Gold Retort Stand (NO POT)
A Mercury Retort is used to recover fine gold from concentrates.
The purpose of the retort is to separate the gold from the mercury components of the gold amalgam. By applying heat to the amalgam the mercury is burnt off as a gas, which passes through the pipe to re-condense as a liquid. The gold remains in the distilling chamber of the retort, while the mercury is collected at the discharge end in liquid form.
This process allows you to reclaim and reuse the mercury.
