True, I personally know that offshore companies are investigating the technology to move part of their operation to dee sea mining in the future. Following you now! ;)

@Ozz

You could hit the jackpot if you find a solution to take it out from there. Pretty interesting to know that.

Not really. The trick is getting it out with as little cost possible.
It's not financially profitable at this point so no one is even trying it.

Let' s hope that this will not mean more pollution for the oceans.. Gold in ocean or petrol in earth or ocean are burried down there from the 'Creator' for a reason in my opinion. Earth had enough from human's greed don't you think?

That photo looks my golden tooth crown just messed up slightly. Following you.

lost gold (ships) or to be mined?

Wouldn't mind claiming some of that gold for myself. I happen to be low on gold at the moment. Very low. Lol

ehehehh:D

so this means gold's value is going to decrease?

nope, it's just there, they dont have profitable techniques to mine it

yep

you bet ! maybe even more ...

Interesting!

Fantastic I'm going for a swim

Unfortunately it's super tough to mine ocean gold. Other wise I'd be on it, I love gold prospecting!
