Nothing is more interesting to a gold bug than seeing gold being made. This is one of my most favorite videos about gold recovery - it is insane the depths to which this company goes to (and safely!) to recover precious metals from shit people throw away.
See the full process where you can see from start to finish the production of a gold ingot worth $101,783 Canadian Dollars.
If you can spare 10 Mins its worth the watch.
Yeah, if I'm not mistaken there are also people who scrap the roadside for sediment or whatever that might contain trace elements of platinum that comes out of our tail pipes. Man, if an alien civilization with an abundance of precious metals saw the lengths we humans go through to obtain just an ounce of this still, I'm sure they'd think it was cute.
I did not know that about Platinum recovery - will look it up.
I think the Aliens would be more concerned about the type of politicians we seem to pick to govern us :P
