Gold in estuary sediment from thousands of years of erosion and very hectic gold production 100 years ago: nzherald.co.nz I have been thinking just that idea in that and similar locations around the Coromandel peninsula. <Plans to dredge a Coromandel harbour for gold and silver left over from the region's mining heyday have met opposition from locals, who fear it will release toxic substances into the pristine marine environment.The Ministry of Economic Development has granted a prospecting permit to New Zealand company Sea Group Holdings to search McGregor Bay, just off Coromandel town, for the precious minerals. The permit allows the company to explore 3.92sq km of harbour for the next two years, and take 80 core samples from the seabed. Company director Marcus Jacobson said they would be sifting through the tailings - crushed-up rock and debris - dumped in the harbour 100 years ago by miners in the gold extraction process. "The first step is just working out what's there and then it's about identifying the best method and approach. It could be dredging but it wouldn't be the whole harbour, it would only be a defined area and, again, we'd have to go through the resource consent process." In the event that dredging or some other method of sediment extraction was allowed to proceed, it would be good for the harbour, he said. "It's actually cleaning up the harbour at the same time." > Gold culture continues to gain ground as monetary mania continues to accelerate in the world of fiat financial relativity theory. I can imagine a "worm" that has a spectrum analyzer in the "nose" to "sniff" out gold as it burrows around metres under the ground under the water following the dense gold presence which is no doubt separated by density into "seams" where old submarine water flows went. Navigation is easy enough these days with clever electronics. Oil drilling can be done horizontally from shore to kilometres offshore, wending its way through oil-rich layers. The sediment and water would be pumped ashore into centrifuges and settling ponds then filtered further for return to the estuary. Gold would pour out of one spout, other things of different density out of other spouts. Silver for example. Mqurice
