Total BS.......Off-topic........sort of
I've always been facinated with how a plebby occurance forms versus a more uniform continuous distribution of gold.
I believe that a high temperature and/or slow cooling rate contributes to the plebby nature. If we consider the very high density of gold, each partical of gold acts as a powerful gravity center. Given a decent period of time, as gold settles, it attracts other gold particles.......much like a snowball rolling down a hillside. As the magma cools first, puddles of gold are trapped, eventually cooling to form gold nuggets.
Rapid cooling and/or low magma temperature events would occur rapid enough that individual particles of gold remain trapped in a more uniform or homogenous manner.
Would like to hear other's ideas on this
That does it.......my little voice has won out.....getting back in, but Tim.......please stay deep this time
