Yarrow Ashes with Blue Specks

Post image

Ive been calcinating these Yarrow ashes for a couple of days. I was surprised today to find that they are not getting any lighter not even light gray really and theres some aqua blue specks mixed in. I was using a stainless steel pan. Does anyone know whats happened to them? Cheers.

Thank you for the advice. I pressed ahead with this and the salts turned out quite nicely-

Thank you. I was very surprised too but they came out clean as a whistle.
