Hi folks, tonight I watched an EXCELLENT documentary on National Geographic Channel Explorer called Secret history of Gold. The video shows several different
things related to Gold but the one that was the most interesting was them watching an illegal hydraulic operation in South America and them using Mercury and
mixing like grapes for wine to get the Gold... it was shocking but very interesting to see. I looked for a Youtube link but it's not up there. I did no see
it on cable but purchased it for $1.99 on iTunes and I HIGHLY recommend purchasing for that price, it was GREAT. Below is a link to the site with a short
teaser clip.

Here is a link to the video in iTunes. It is episode number 24 on the page that opens in iTunes.
Here is a related clip, they are DESTROYING the Amazon... wow, huge hydraulic mines and then using Mercury to bind the Gold powder together... what we see as a hinderance (Mercury sticking to Gold), they see as a requirement... they then mix it all up, bare hands/feet and once solid, burn off the Mercury. The devastation that their free for all mining is doiing is beyond belief, all illegal and in plain site...wow.. here's the link
