Chuck, >>What I don't see is how he can make any money from it by talking about it... no one is going to be willing to buy something from him without proof... and to believe that they are going to have to produce their own from "scratch" they go out and acquire on their own. If he spreads this "truth" too widely then gold is not going to have much value, so his best bet is to sit on it and produce enough to live comfortably with no one being the wiser... << With respect, I am not selling anything other than precious metals. Prior to someone buying, they take the material, sample it, perform an assay and if the assay is close to mine, I sell the precious metals to them. My point of stepping in and out of these threads is to bring to life a reality that laboratory scale transmutation occurs in numerous laboratories. This is not bad. However, if one is basing a mine on only an "esoteric" assay, without a methodology to take the esoteric assay procedure into production, then they are not a mining company but a potential "new tech" company. As I have stated in the past, I have a great respect for Wayne Palmer at GPGI, but he continuously is pulling his hair. Please allow me to explain. Mining companies that are not working in the "norm" of standard recovery develop their own proprietary processes. Some make lead dore bars, some make copper dore bars and some make a precipitant. Now how hard is it to remove precious metals from a copper bar, that is, assuming that the copper bars meet the standard requirements? Simple, you electrowinn the copper away and in the sludge you have precious metals and some base metals. From here you simply extract the precious metals by standard metallurgical processes. Companies have been doing this for decades. When one is close to the situation, they unknowingly add certain twists and turns. Wayne and Russell are quite capable of recovering the precious metals, I have full confidence and first hand knowledge of this. However, when they try to ramp up the process, they run into all sorts of problems. This is not only the story of GPGI, but all of the esoteric, complex ore mining companies for the past 50 years. As far as my work, I do not have to prove anything to anyone. Although, I have an open door and if someone wants to visit our little facility all it takes is an appointment, nothing more. During the past two years, I have offered numerous invitations to all of the desert dirt companies in the Phoenix area. Hell, I even offered an invitation to BRE-X. There is neither cover charge nor obligation and to date, no one has accepted the invitation. At any rate, I sincerely wish all involved in the DD's good luck. I will continue will my small production and be happy. Joe Championtransmutation.com
