What’s actually happening is a conversion to a form of copper that provides some catalytic properties similar to those of gold. They start off with copper and they finish with copper and at no point do they actually have gold.
That's what I wanted to see. I don't remember enough chemistry to be able to judge.
The ignorant author of the article thinks we don't see the apostrophes around 'gold'. We ain't stoopid! Gold is not 'gold'.
Some authors will do anything and say anything to get an article in print.

Well, they've been using Harbor Freight to sell the crap they make out of recycled beer cans and stolen US Patents, calling them "tools", for decades.
Why shouldn't they make "gold" out of copper?
Some dumb ass liberal will buy it.
Watch for Glenn Beck to start shilling for it, to be purchased with the mythical "Bit-coin".
China is...well, China, a pejorative statement for any and all CRAP.

I’ve tried that for cleaning silver with a metal plate - aluminum? - in the water under the silver.
Didn’t work as good as old Wright’s ;-)

It took a second to work out the image.
Glad someone else remembers Girl With The Gold Boots.

They’ve been filling gold bars with tungsten for years.
Pretty much turning it into gold, only a much simpler process.

Usual science distortion about a laboratory trick
Process will become practical when Gold hits $55000 dollars an ounce (if not $555000 if they cant techniclaly scale the process)
Also generally atomic element conversion produces ALOT of isotopes that are highly radioactive - another little problem with ‘spinning gold from copper straw’ ...
