Never have refined Gold or any other metal.
To learn how to refine, process and search for precious metals
I discovered this site by reading comments on a YT channel (Sreetips) and have been lurking for a bit.

Currently working in NW Romania for the next two months. Have Sundays off and want to find gold from the Aries river here. Anyone know if I'd get in trouble for gold panning?

Welcome to us.

Since you have an interest for Chemistry this should not be too bad.

Here is for your studies:

We ask our new members to do 3 things.

It is free here on the forum: https://goldrefiningforum.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=54&t=19798
2. Then read the safety section of the forum: https://goldrefiningforum.com/forums/safety.47/
3. And then read about "Dealing with waste" in the forum: https://goldrefiningforum.com/threads/dealing-with-waste.10539/
