Amalgam (chemistry) copper trough, which formed a thin coating of mercury on the exterior. The waste ore was then transferred down the trough, and gold in the waste amalgamated with the mercury. This coating would then be scraped off and refined by evaporation to get rid of the mercury, leaving behind somewhat high-purity gold. Mercury amalgamation was first used on silver ores with the development of the patio process in Mexico in 1557. There were also additional amalgamation processes that were created for processing silver ores, including pan amalgamation and the Washoe process. Gold amalgam has proved effective where gold fines ("flour
Real element formula_1, Every involution is strongly real. Furthermore, every element that is the product of two involutions is strongly real. Conversely, every strongly real element is the product of two involutions. If and formula_1 is real in formula_2 and formula_30 is odd, then formula_1 is strongly real in formula_2. The extended centralizer of an element formula_1 of a group formula_2 is defined as making the extended centralizer of an element formula_1 equal to the normalizer of the set The extended centralizer of an element of a group formula_2 is always a subgroup of formula_2. For involutions or non-real elements, centralizer and
