[QUOTE="Deepseeker, post: 519849, member: 13321"] Awesome thanks goldierocks :Y: That's exactly how I understood the process to work "like a Hydraulic pump", and when you see a felled Mountain Ash, River Red Gum, Ironbark etc., it's amazing when you see the sap veins running up through the tree trunk and think that it had to overcome gravity and pull that thick viscous sap all the way up to the top of the tree and its leaves, it would have no problem at all in carrying gold particles with it. And, something I hadn't considered until viewing that video and it's graphics is of course those leaves then eventually fall onto the ground and release the gold, and then potentially go on to contribute to various other cycles on the forest floor, such as gold eating bacteria, fungi, interaction with near-surface ironstone etc etc. Thanks for that [/QUOTE]
