minus-squareRicaz@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·3 months agoSpecifically from around 40-50% to 70-80%. It’s impossible to get more than roughly 85-90% purity as that’s the purity they export.
minus-squareTar_Alcaran@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·3 months agoThat makes a lot more sense. Or the quality was originally absolutely terrible.
minus-squaredream_weasel@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·3 months agoIt clearly says 2014=100. Ergo a value of 160 is 3222.4 on the purity scale. You’re going to need a lot of water.
minus-squareyermaw@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3 months agoFor our purposes, 140 will do fine.
