    I bought one of the refining systems several years ago. I used  it
    several times. Total waste of money. Now I reuse all my clean yellow
    gold, using "re-cast-it"  to clean  up the melt. My sweeps go to a
    scrap dealer who comes around once a year. If you're still not
    convinced, buy the detergent they sell to clean your buffing dust
    and try to get the  ounce of metal they claim from each pound of dust. R. H.
