The people involved in this work were dealing with such large quantities of water, I can't imagine how they could have done it. It would be interesting if someone could make a very small scale video explaining how someone believes it happened.

All that work for gold! Doesn't seem possible a mere metal substance could be worth it!

Can hardly stop staring at that photo. Fascinating.
