Oh in the Philippines almost 300,000 small-scale gold miners struggle to survive the work is hard so why not get more gold out of it and make more money without using mercury because there is a better way to catch the gold by using borax you will get more gold and you don't need to invest more money it is the same time to reduce it with borax methods but the advantage is you get 50 60 70 % more go the borax method is environmentally benign and it uses no mercury mercury is highly toxic and can make you and your family sick for generations to come movies using borax only requires a little practice and you can learn it quickly this is manual instead of collecting gold from Mercury we do it this way many think that doing this panning is taking longer time and they think that using mercury will take shorter time but I think that the duration of time is almost the same let's take a good look on how easy it is to get more gold there are only a few steps that you need to learn do not add mercury in the rod mill after the milling the ore is sluiced down over a carpet the carpet made of felt will catch all their heavy minerals like iron copper silver and gold the carpet is then washed carefully you must add normal hand soap because it makes the gold sink to the bottom if you do not use soap you risk that some of the gold will be washed away with the water now the panning begins I the iron is removed with a simple magnet wrapped in plastic and here is another trick that will give you more gold I'm grinding the stuff so that it will be finer and easier to remove while the gold will be left behind the gold is carefully collected in a small piece of plastic next step is that you take your heavy minimum concentrate lots of gold put it in a small piece of plastic at about the same amount of borax now it is time to prepare for the cooking of the gold the cooking takes place exactly as the in the local method in a clay Bowl but here you sprinkle the clay bowl with borax this is to put grease into it and to prevent if ever it from cracking if it does the borax will hold the gold and it will not get lost we do it this way first you put this pipe on I will use this to control the air the gold might be blown from the sides of the clay and it will be scattered around you can also use a blowtorch to cook the mixture of borax and gold after heating the clay bowl simply add borax now I need to add charcoal to increase the heat within a short while the borax will melt in the clay bowl it's just to check the efficiency of the clay if it will crack and now I will put in the gold the process will only take around five to 10 minutes depending on the amount of gold and there it is pure gold without the use of mercury mercury makes you and your family sick for generations and mercury destroys the nature so start using borax get cleaner and more gold and make more money
