I think that's what a mate told me he had to pay, a while back for 100 grams. Still at that it's $1,500. Just a brain fart on my behalf made me think and type ten dollars.

Artisan miners in Africa pay USD$10 a gram, so it goes to show it is supply and demand that dictates what it is worth, I was given a large amount of it and have given most of it away, an ounce a time seems to me to be the best amount to run through concentrates in the pan
