I've been following this for a while. The explanation originally made for the precious metals inability to be extracted by conventional methods was due to relativistic effects of the motion of electrons in the gold and platinum.


This still remains the only reason put forward so far. My training is in physics and when I looked into this a long while ago I found that relativistic effects in chemistry can be considered to be perturbations, or small corrections, to the non-relativistic theory of chemistry and I don't seem like likely candidates for the problems with the assaying . Small perturbations mean small energies.

They will need the best chemists they can get as these exceptional precious metal grades can't be seen in visible light under any magnification. Esh
