Reuters Headline: Japan Sewage Yields More Gold Than World's Top Mines
Basically they've discovered that by refining the ash from incinerated sewage they're able to pull out 1,890 grams of gold per ton of sewage. Compare that to the output of the Hishikari Mine, one of the world's top producers, which puts out 20-40 grams per ton of ore.
Does this just work for Japanese people, I wonder, or should I start thinking twice about flushing all my valuable waste down the toilet?
I had a cat once that used to poop in the fireplace, I guess I never fully recognized it's value.
