The start-up cost to implement the Aladdin Separation equipment must be very high, too expensive for those with untapped gold ores to rent or buy into this technology even thought there would be a pay-day down the road versus a continuation of leaving the gold in the ore for no monetary return.
I never expected the approach to address the global mercury problem to be successful since all the nations having such dire conditions with mercury pollution have high levels of corruption throughout the government, and artisan miners individually have no collective voice for change.
Hard to believe there are no parties in the United States or Canada having untapped gold ore that would allow us to demonstrate our process to extract gold. But then the message "... Al was still actively looking for funding." seems to indicate that we don't have the cash to do a sizeable extraction of gold from ore to prove our technology. If so, doubtful asking for funding for a "gold mine" will be successful since history has an almost continuation of fraud in this arena.
