I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions on an easy
way to test for nickle. I have tried nickle test kits from the drug stores, which work fine on specimens with a very high nickle
content, but not on the majority of stoney pieces. I have purchased nickle test kit on EBAY, they too fell short. Does anyone have a reliable test that have the sensitivity to be effective, even on sample with low nickle content?
Thanks in advance,
