I'm missing some context here: Why do we want to extract strontium nitrate anyway?

  The author's home page reveals that he has an interest in amateur rocketry. Strontium nitrate doesn't sound suitable as a propellant, so I suppose he wants it to generate visual effects. https://spiegl.org/unsorted/unsorted.html https://spiegl.org/unsorted/unsorted.html

    Red rocket engine flame looks really neat.

  Because we don’t have a Sigma Aldrich account.

    And more importantly we don't want to pay.. $360 a kilo for reagent grade. Yikes.
