1. Can the new gold be reclaimed from the plastic 100% without losing gold pr creating toxic gases from melting plastic (or any other method.)
2. Is the manufacturing of the gold environmentally responsible or does that involve elements of toxifying the environment during the “melting” or “shaping” phase to make a product?
