The video below is long (10min) no need to watch it all – just pull the play control to skip forward through it quickly.
I got many impressions from watching.
- the number of workers involved
- the conditions they worked in
- the environmental controls not present
- the miniscule amount of the target metal for the effort
- the energy (gas) used
- how lucky I am to have been born in the USA
Conclusion – Silver selling at $30/oz. is a joke.
The dollar is hugely overvalued.
