Wow dude, you've taken this so far out of context, seems a bit personal to you? Point is, they have yet to extract the gold. Feb. 2009 will be 3 years! No banana! Apparently if there was a deep seated interest in extracting this gold, cost effectively, they would have made more progress. Fact remains, is there a viable way to undertake this extraction, and profit from it? Technology at its best today is not good enough to make this happen, otherwise, it would have already bet set in motion.
