just read the following article:

got me thinking. antarctica used to be a lush tropical environment located in the equatorial regions, thus must have had plentiful flowing waterways.

scientists have been core drilling the hell oot of it trying to find heavy metals, alien microbes etc etc.

surely there must be signs of gold showing up, in the weathered dry valleys, and in the core samples. i know most core sample are ice but not all.

has anyone heard of any golden evidence.

i'm not planning on heading down with my sluicebox. cold enough at 42 degrees south yet along the windswept south pole.

i'm sure some greedy american power magnate has already looked into it.
