Ok, try collecting that!
Sorry, that $6,000 totally makes this article and the repeated news about this as very over sold. A few ounces each day? Wow with a yawn.
Soo.....it spits 3 ounces of gold.
Wow.
so a few ounces a day... across a vast distance im assuming.
Theres’s 5 TONS of gold in every cubic mile of ocean.
“the costs of extracting and transporting the gold from such an inhospitable location are likely to outweigh the value of the gold itself”
Yep.
Interesting read, though.
That’s nothing.
Seawater has anywhere from 5 to 25 tons of gold per cubic mile, the problem being extracting it costs orders of magnitude more than it is worth.

I once prospected a creek in central Idaho where I recovered two ounces of fine gold in three hours and I was able to drive to within 1/4 mile of the spot. The temperature was +65* which is a bit warmer than Antarctica.
