Just pan for it. I swear it comes out really easy.

Man-made global warming is a farce. The best way to make money on that whole fiasco is buying stock in one of the bs companies selling carbon credits. Hell, that's what Al Gore is doing. (To Do List: 1. become moderately famous, 2. Pretend a natural occurrence is man-made, 3. Write a Book about it, 4. Ride around giving speeches about how to "stop" it, 5. Invest in the companies that provide the solutions that you speak about, 6. Collect cheddar (haha, and son from jail))

Can we get Mr. Randy Holmes Farley to chime in on this here? No, not on that hi-fi northern california sensimilla, but you know this whole gold extraction thingy.

Does he still work here?

How much do you pay for your NSW? (What I use) Are you spending a lot, and feel you need to make some of that $$$ back?

Interesting, I run my saltwater through a DIY gold extractor... it pays for my tank. I'll sell the plans for $1,500 USD - PayPal only please.

Look at it like this folks. The ocean contains 328,000,000 cubic miles of salt water. Each cubic mile can hold (5280)Â³ cubic feet of water. Each cubic foot can hold (12)Â³ cubic inches. Each gallon can hold 231 cubic inches. So 3.612 x 10Â²Âº gallons of sea water is in the ocean. How do we calculate this? Well, we use the normal conversions of feet to mile, inches to feet, but cube the numbers because you are dealing with volume. Take the number of cubic miles of ocean water and multiply by (5280)Â³ to find the number of feet in miles, then multiply again by (12)Â³ to find the number of inches in feet, and divide by 231 to find how many gallons will hold that many cubic inches. So there's 361 quintillion gallons of sea water in the ocean. That may not sound like a lot, but try typing it, I did but I ran out of zeros. Anyway, so if there's 361 quintillion gallons of water, and you can get .434 grams or pounds of gold from like 300 million gallons, if you processed all the ocean water, you'd probably get a lot of gold. Someone do the math, my head's hurting

tanks for the feedback everyone

5.23x10e12 grams. Thats somewhere in the ballpark of $109 Trillion worth of gold at current prices.
