Helping a buddy out with his first extraction. This is only 1/2 of the first pull, looks like less than a gram. I took some cool pics of it though

Here is everything after melting and re-xing it. So something happened with this extraction that I haven't experienced before; a thick yellow-orange oil would seperate and sink to the bottom of the naptha. From what I understand this is from heating-cooling cycles. So I used a small dropper to remove most of it but some did remain at the bottom which is why the bottom part of this crystal cluster is a darker color. The stuff that I removed is full of DMT though, it crystallized fairly fast after I moved it to another jar. I'm not complaining by any means, I like the yellow stuff a lot. Just wanted to give you guys a brief description of why it looks like that. Any of you guys ever experience this thick yellow oil seperate outta warm naptha solution?

Yeah that’s pretty common with hot naptha pulls. It’s different from but similar to the red spice that xylene pulls. Some bark is more prone than others to it as well.
A fun experiment is to wash it with cold heptane. If your experience is the same as mine, you’ll get somewhat pure DMT from the evaporated heptane and a waxy red crayon substance from the washed residue.
