Elemental Replication ?
Around mid September I put together an electrolysis cell similar
to the Miles Nickel Cold Fusion Cell with the goal of exploring the
possibilities of making what is termed =93Pristine Water=94. This water
which will be used by Homeopaths will have had all memory or information
removed. This is accomplished by recombining monatomic hydrogen and
monatomic oxygen as generated in a properly designed cell. This is the
ultimate in purity since this is water with conditions at the time of
original creation. =93Wholy Water=94is a term coined by my dear freind a=
nd
fellow researcher Joe Tyls of Vancouver, BC. After several weeks of
successful operation producing water that had all the earmarks of a true
=93pristine water=94 a fellow researcher suggested using an alternate
electrolyte. A solution was selected that contained 77 colloidal
minerals as found in plants that are the easiest assimilated into the
body. With the electrolyte changed the cell was put back into
operation as before with a nice recombination burn and production of the
sought after =93pristine water=94.
After about an hour of operation the cell went absolutely =93nuts=94
with the temperature rapidly climbing to boiling point and the current
out of sight. When the cell was opened we found a deep red sludge
deposit which shorted the cell plates. Our first thought was that the
electrolytic action precipitated out the colloidal minerals which caused
the deposit found. The electrolyte was allowed to settle out the
precipitate. After decanting off, the clear electrolyte was returned
to the cell for another run. Again the cell operated normally for about
an hour with a normal recombination burn and recovery of the water being
consumed by the cell in the splitting action. Again the cell
temperature and current mirrored the first run. Again the cell
contained the same amount of sludge residue. This process was repeated
ten (10) times with exactly the same results. All of the sludge was
carefully dried and weighed on an electronic scale with a five decimal
resolution. The cell plates and all hardware were
weighed to determine any loss of mass that may contribute to the mass
gain observed in the sludge. Five hundred (500) ml of the original
electrolyte solution used in the cell was vacuum distilled to determine
the exact mass of colloidal minerals contained. When all factors were
considered we came out with a mass gain of 48 gm which cannot be
explained by conventional electrolysis.
After talking to Dr. Robert Bass and Hal Fox I learned of a patent
that has been filed on the transmutation of elements in the cold fusion
cell which is the process that Dr. John Bockris has been so active in.
Both Dr. Bass and Hal Fox stated that what I was observing is not the
same as the transmutation observed in the cold fusion cell since I have
a overall mass gain and not a lateral movement of elements in the
periodic table toward lighter elements with a resulting heat release.
This unusual cell operation has caused quite a reaction in the
scientific community. At this time I have built a complete new cell
with every possible factor which could possibly explain the mass gain
considered and documented. The ten (10) consecutive runs on the new
cell will be completed soon and a report will be forthcoming. What is
interesting about this phenomenon is that when an eleventh run was made
with the original electrolyte exactly the same amount of residue was
recovered as in the previous ten runs.
Since the same electrolyte is reused each time with only distilled water
being added to replace the volume lost by the removal of the solids and
the water recovered by the recombination burn we are hard pressed to
explain the observed phenomenon. The electrolyte appears stronger in
mineral concentration and shows no sign of depletion.
After confering with Joe Tyls we arrived at the conclusion that the
77 colloidal minerals contained in the electrolyte provide the atomic
templates needed for the monatomic hydrogen (father of all the elements)
to replicate selected elements in this exotic mixture. If you subscribe
to the theories of the late Walter Russell and his explanation of the
octave based periodic table with monatonic hydrogen being what he
describes as hydrons (precursor to hydrogen) then it is possible for the
replication of elements directly from energy input alone. This is how
all matter was created in the beginning as described by Schappeller in
=93The Physics of the Primary State of Matter=94. I will keep all
informed as to our progress and findings in this very intriguing
venture.

Elemental Replication?
On 16 October I made an initial report on the electrolysis cell that
appears to be creating mass or elements from distilled water and
electrical energy input. The following is the technical description of
the cell , set-up procedures, run procedures and the final solid residue
weight data.
Cell Description
The electrolysis cell is designed to hold one (1) liter of
electrolyte and operate at approximately 150 watt power level for the
production of monatomic hydrogen and monatomic oxygen which is burned
back to pure water and collected in a glass condenser. Cell container
is schedule 40 PVC pipe section 6 inches long with bottom cap cemented
on. The top of the cell has a 4 inch female thread adapter cemented on
to provide access to the interior via a male threaded plug which has the
gas outlet port and two electrolyte fill ports to provide for
replacement of lost electrolyte on the fly for continuos operation.
Positive and negative terminals are provided for external connection of
the power supply leads to the internal anode- cathode stack.
The cell plate stack consist of 8 anode plates and 8 cathode plates
of the following sizes constructed from 316L stainless steel of 22 ga.
thickness.
4 ea. 3=94 X 3=94 plates, 2 ea. 3=94 X 2.75=94plates, 2 ea. 3=94 X 2.5=
=94plates,
2 ea. 3=94 X 2.25=94 plates, 2 ea. 3=94 X 2=94 plates, 2 ea. 3=94 X 1.7=
5=94
plates, and 2 ea. 3=94 X 1.5=94 plates. The plates are drilled and stac=
ked
with alternating anode and cathode plates spaced 1/8=94 apart which makes
a cylindrical shaped array which fits nicely inside of the 4=94 ID PVC
cell container. Electrical leads are braided copper of #10 size which
are covered by shrink tubing to cover conductive surface as they pass
through the electrolyte to the cell terminal bolts. All electrical
surfaces other than the anode and cathode plates are carefully covered
with PVC cement to prevent deterioration from electrolyte contact.
Please note that if allowed to come into contact with =93charged=94 surfa=
ces
monatomic hydrogen and monatonic oxygen will imediately form into their
usual occuring state as diatomic H2 and O2 molecules.
The electrolyte originally used was Potassium Carbonate and
distilled water mixed to provide a cell current of 20 amps @ 5 volts
DC. Please don=92t get excited by saying that 1.7 volts is the ideal
voltage for electrolysis for this is not intended to be a normal cell
operation from the get-go if you get my =93drift=94. The electrolyte th=

was substituted after two weeks of successful cell operation is a
product called Body Booster which can be bought from most health food
outlets and is produced by The Rockland Corporation, Tulsa, OK 74136 1
(800) 421-7310. This product contains 77 colloidal minerals which are
plant derived from humic shale which is mined in Emery County, Utah.
Hal Fox said he was very familiar with this famous deposit of shale from
a prehistoric forest dating back 70 million years. I used 500 ml. of
the selected electrolyte mixed with 500ml. of distilled water which gave
me a starting cell current of 30 amps @ 5 Volts DC input. The power
supply selected to drive this electrolysis cell is a switching type that
has an output of 5 Volts DC with a current capability of 120 amps.
Recombination burn of the monatomic hydrogen and monatomic oxygen
give the proper heat signatures which enable you to determine whether
you are generating H2 and O2 gas which is diatomic or the desired
monatomic gases. Everyone experimenting with the famous =93brown=92s gas=
=94
knows that only monatomic gas will provide the high temperatures
necessary to sublimate a tungsten wire.
Cell Set Up
With the cell set up and ready for operation a safety bubblier must
be used between the gas generator cell and the burner orifice to prevent
possible flash back implosion in the generator proper. The burner
nozzle used was hand drawn from quartz tubing and was fitted inside a
Pyrex cryogenic condenser unit which is cooled to about 40 degrees F.
with circulating chilled water. After power is supplied to cell and
stable gas flow is established through bubblier the burn jet is lit off
and inserted into the sealed condenser unit so that there is no outside
air contaminates to deal with. Since the burn of this ideal ratio gas
is implosive when reforming into water the unit can be run in a totally
closed and sealed system. Cell voltage , current and temperature is
monitored by attached instrumentation. A cell this size will generate
50ml. of reformed water during a 6 hour run with the cell temperature
stabilizing around 120 degrees F.
Test Results
As stated before, after an hour of running time with the new
electrolyte the temperature and cell current made a drastic increase
caused by the shorting out of the cell plate stack from mineral sludge
build up. After ten (10) runs recycling the same decanted electrolyte
back into the cell the following solid residue data was recorded after
careful filtering, drying and weighing.
Run # 1 8.04 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 2 7.98 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 3 10.45 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 4 10.71 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 5 11.69 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 6 7.34 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 7 8.10 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 8 5.73 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 9 6.35 gm. dry solid weight
Run #10 3.96 gm. dry solid weight
_____________________________
Total wt. 80.35 gm. dry solid weight
A sample 500ml. quantity of the original electrolyte selected was
vacuum distilled down, filtered and dried to determine the actual
mineral content of the electrolyte with a resulting weight of 5.8
gm. The label on the bottle state that the mineral content of 500 ml.
is 19 gm. Since there is a glaring discrepancy between the starting
electrolyte mineral content and the solid residue yield we carefully
weighed all components of the cell and found that the cell anode and
cathode plates had lost a total of 34.79 gm of their original total
weight of 464.28 gm. A quantity of 500 ml. of the beginning electrolyte
weighs exactly 527.4 gm. After 10 runs the 500ml. quantity of the
electrolyte weighs 523.9 gm which means that there is a density loss of
only 3.5 gm. from a beginning (actual) mineral content of 5.8 gm. After
subtracting all factors we still have an excess mass of 45.56 gm. of
material. Since this cell had been run for two weeks using the
potassium carbonate as an electrolyte before the switch to the new
electrolyte we could not determine the extent of plate material loss
that had occurred during this first period of operation.
Test Results (New Cell)
The solution was to build a complete new cell with all new parts and
hardware. Everything was carefully weighed and documented before a new
series of runs were conducted. The following data is from fifteen (15)
consecutive runs with the electrolyte being recycled back into the cell
after extracting the solid residue.
Run # 1 2.84 gm dry solid weight
Run # 2 4.16 gm dry solid weight
Run # 3 4.19 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 4 4.00 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 5 5.96 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 6 2.83 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 7 3.80 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 8 4.95 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 9 6.18 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 10 5.56 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 11 4.33 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 12 4.66 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 13 3.66 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 14 4.52 gm. dry solid weight
Run # 15 6.57 gm. dry solid weight

Total wt. 68.21 gm. dry solid weight
When you analyze the weight data from the runs the question arises
as to why there is such deviations in yield between the runs. This can
be answered from a visual examination of the dried and crushed residue.
There is a distinct difference in color and texture from one run to the
other with the beginning runs being a dark brownish hard residue
changing to a lighter brown soft clay like residue at the end of the run
with an increase in volume toward the end of the series.
The electrolyte starts as a light yellow brown color and ends as a
darker more brownish yellow fluid which appears to have more dissolved
minerals present than at the beginning.
The next step was to disassemble the cell components and carefully weigh
and document any and all losses which may contribute to the observed
mass gain. After this task was completed we found a total loss of mass
from the cell plates of 34.44 gm. This leaves us with an unaccounted
for mass gain of 33.77 gm. derived from a starting volume of electrolyte
that contains only 5.8 gm. determined by vacuum distillation of the
actual beginning electrolyte (500 ml.). Two samples of the recovered
material has been sent to separate labs for analysis to determine
composition. This will present a problem since the produced minerals
seem to change in composition and color with each run made. It may be
necessary to run an analysis on each and every run product to determine
exact minerals being produced and in what quantities. Keep in mind
that the electrolyte is far from being spent or stripped of dissolved
minerals. I stopped the process at 15 runs so I could write this
report of findings. I will keep everyone informed as to future
progress. In the mean time I would invite anyone interested to
replicate this experiment since it is so simple to set up.
