You probably want to try the gold refiners forum. That’s beyond what most of us here do. It IS doable (hence so many we buy broken lcd companies on the net) but it’s beyond any easy acid melt. You generally have the right track. Recovery of gold fromlcd glass is much like mirrors with an internal layer of gold/silver/etc. Like laser mirrors. You Granulate the glass. Melt the whole mix and then use various chemicals to separate all the elements, silicon, sodium, gold, carbon, etc. As far as I’m aware that’s the only method used to any degree in metals recovery from glass. It is infact how they remove copper, tin, aluminium, etc from glass drink bottles (colours) that are recycled as well.
Though generally it’s simply remelted into “feed tubes” as a specific tYpe of glass rather than recovered. Gold glass makes gold glass. Copper glass makes copper glass.
Unless you have many tons of it you’re looking at a loss via energy and and materials, vurses what you’ll recover in just the gold.
