Using cornstarch to extract gold ??

[gold_seeker]

Today while looking for ways to extract gold, before i found this and if you told me I could get gold with cornstarch I would laugh at you. Anybody try this? does it work? sounds like BS to me

I read about that a few months ago...problem is it's a complex system. They're working to make it more simple, but no luck so far. If they get it done, would be great.

This is still experimental, so the best method for us in the field to extract gold with corn starch: is to wrap candy floss tightly around a small wooden stick and then push firmly into the bottom a crevice in a historic gold creek. LOL
