I read somewhere that the gold in the WTC was recovered (under heavy guard) and somewhat melted! Actually it couldn't turn into ash, as it is an element. It's pretty hard to destroy gold, unless it is actually vaporized and dispersed. That's one of the reasons it is so regarded as a store of value

No because all of the Gold stored in the WTC was really stored 3 blocks east in the basement vaults of the Federal Reserve Bank and the aux. at 1 Chase Manhattan Plaza B5. Unless of course you are talking about all of the gold stored in the couple of small Jewelery Store that were located in the WTC concourse?

Not a problem. At worst the gold would melt and trickle down to the sub basement. They have found every ounce even though it took over 6 months.
