Once I found out that The Essene was making and selling gold, I turned into a bloodhound trawling through all the old posts trying to find whatever snippets of evidence I can about how he might have actually done it.
Anyway, I came up with an answer, and here it is...
First just re-stating some clear facts about “The Essene”:
> He had access to a big pile of magnetite black sand which was a tailings pile from a mine.
> He was regularly operating on that black sand to make his “M3” medicine.
> Don Nance was given some of The Essene’s M3, which cured Don’s cancer
(at least that’s what Don believes)
> The Essene later took Don as his student teaching Don how to make M3.
(which is probably why the M3 process is now public knowledge)
> Even though The Essene knew how to make the M3 medicine, he was not in perfect health himself.
(According to Andro, he was blind or near-blind in the later years of his life.)
> The Essene was threatened by gun-toting goons after he returned from a trip to China to sell his gold to a Chinese criminal cartel.
> The Essene claimed that he made a ceramic disc using white powder iridium which experienced gravitational abnormalities and pendulum abnormalities
> The Essene’s job was a mining engineer
And further restating some well understood facts about ormus known within the ormus fraternity:
> There are 2 forms of platinum group metals, 1 form is metallic and the other is a white powder form.
> It is possible to change the metallic form into the white powder form and vice versa.
(It was often said that it is more difficult to convert the white powder form into the metallic form though)
> Only 2 white powder metals are soluble in hydrochloric acid, namely gold and iridium.
And 1 white powder metal is only partially soluble in hydrochloric acid, which is platinum.
(all other white powder metals are insoluble in hydrochloric acid)
> White powder gold boils at 425-600 degrees celcius
> White powder iridium boils at 5400 degrees celcius
The above “facts” were demonstrated early on in the ormus time-line and to my knowledge were never disputed nor refuted by any subsequent researchers.
Deduced facts about The Essene:
> Since he was able to make pure white powder iridium, he was therefore able to make white powder gold mixed with white powder iridium.
(Eg: after precipitate white powders from hydrochloric acid, he would have had both of the white powder metals before the step of boiling off the white powder gold at a lower temperature to be left with white powder iridium on its own).
Things about The Essene highly likley to be true:
> He did not know how to make the classic all encompassing gold alchemy medicine
(due to his declining health in old age, if he knew the ultimate medicine, he’d have used it)
> He did not know the classic alchemy path.
(because he was able to freely teach others his processes, meaning he was not beholden to the standard oaths of secrecy)
Fair assumptions which can be made about The Essene:
> His gold production method was not from a straight transmutation stone as described in classical alchemy.
> His gold production technique was probably due to converting the white powder form of gold into the metallic form of gold as was understood to be possible within the ormus community.
Ironically, the information on how it is possible to convert white powder form to metallic form was already right here on the forum under all our noses.

And according to Vlad, it had already been verified by one person when he made that post back in 2009.
So….putting it all together,
here’s how I think The Essene was making his gold:
> Perform a lye burn on the black sand from the mine tailings
> Precipitate the ormus white powder metals
> Dissolve the white powder in hydrochloric acid and discard what doesn’t dissolve
> Precipitate the white powder metals back out of hydrochloric acid, then separate out and dry (should be white powder of iridium and gold)
> Mix the dry white powder with sulfur and burn
> Add silver to the white powder and sulfur and melt them all together
> After cooling, place the entire mass in nitric acid to dissolve the silver out (and vapor off remaining sulfur as SO2)
> Remove the remaining solids and put them in aqua regia (this will be gold + iridium metals)
> Remove the remaining solids and melt into a bar (will be iridium metal which doesn’t dissolve in aqua regia)
> Precipitate gold out of the aqua regia,
separate it out and melt into a gold bar
> There will probably also be a small amount of platinum dissolved in the remaining solution, which can also precipitate, separate out and melt into a platinum bar.
For any of this to be true...you'd have to accept the fact that the white powder form of metals is a real thing.
I'm not even sure if I believe it myself, but I'm even more certain that most of you here on the forums certainly don't believe it.
I really only post this as an academic exercise......if white powder metals are true (and if they're found in black sand minerals), then this is how it might have been done.
To be honest, I don't even really believe what I write, and fortunately nobody else believes me either.
