Invintor alchemist: research fund

My name is Nathan I am an invintor and alchemist. Durring my research I discovered that 2/3 of all alchemy books describe one single process and set of ingredients to create the philospoher's stone. In practical experimentation I discovered that these processes work exactly as described. From these instructions I have successfully created the lesser known white philosopher's stone and used it to make the elixir of life.  I need a little more equipment for my laboratory in order to convert this white stone into the better well known red one. To do this I need to sublimate the white stone to make it into a red powder that is then combined with gold hydroxide and melted into a special kind of water soluble red glass,known as philosopher's stone.  I need a furnace to melt metals and sublimate the stone,a small fuzed quartz flask ,with a ground glass stopper, to sublimate the stone in,aqua regia to extract gold from circuit boards and convert it to gold hydroxide. I also need a cheap distillation aparatus ,propane,and glass ampules to make and ship samples to those who would like to test it for themselves.  I also need a crucible or two for melting metals in to see if I can create projection powder from this stone.

Update: Thanks to help from contributers, I have successfully fermented the stone with both gold and silver.
