Hi Anne,
I looked up the site. It uses usual small-scale design, sloping board,
baffles, but has a special design to retain mercury so it can be
recaptured and re-used, instead of lost to the environment. Doesn't
seem to say anything about separating mercury from the gold - does one
boil it off as usual? Too bad you can't get a web server that lets you
access sites like this. don
