After freeze-precipitating my last pull with naphtha, I saved the solvent in a jar for re-use in the next extraction.
I forgot about it and when I found it weeks later, there was a red / reddish orange precipitate at the bottom of the jar.
Any idea what it is? Could it be the jungle alkaloids, which the naphtha pulled, but the freeze precipitation didn't retrieve?
