I 'm wondering if one could  HYDROSOL Gold  or Silver with distilled water.
This is a process commonly used to produce flower essence or essential oils.
You have a closed system with water boiling on the bottom. The steam rises
and passes through a second middle layer  [flowers / herbs / Gold / Silver]
and condenses at the top and collecting the essence of the flower/herb or
oil along with the steam distillate which runs down a cooling strip. I may
try that if I can get a hold of some gold and silver dust. Just have to plan
things out what to hold the dust on (stainless may as well corrode, paper
filters (like coffee filters, how to weight everything and what to look for
and then how to test whats there.

any ideas?

  In Ayurveda, we were taught to boil pure gold in water (I don't have the
specifics handy) to produce "gold water"  or the same process for silver.
this produces a somewhat homeopathic water.

    I have a question. Since distilled water is corrosive, why doesn't it
    dissolve a percentage of gold from a coin that is simply set in the
water.
    Isn't that what the pilgrims need with their silver dollars. Seems it
would
    at least produce a homeopathic type relationship.
