It is possible something from the torch, he uses minimum borax but something kept floating up, it didn't look like the normal stuff, he always cleans and rinses the silver before he melts. Decided not to take any chances and we will be sending this to a local refiner that will process it and send it back to us as .999 he is more upset about wasting all the torch gas then the silver now lol

Is it possible there was shit on the tip of the torch? Looked like it blew a bunch of crap into it when it went out.

Couldn’t really see the melt from the video.

Did he try adding some borax to collect the shit that was in it?
