    John, Thanks so much for all the effort you have put in to answering
    my question of the blue crystals. I'm overwhelmed! As for the
    possible introduction of copper into the pickle, since I was
    soldering gold to the wrought iron/steel perhaps the copper in the
    alloy leached into the pickle? The color certainly is a rich cobalt
    blue. 

Jerry
