Recycled Bronze

The importance of sustainable gold

Where does it come from?  Gold is literally stardust, forged in the explosions of supernovas or colliding neutron stars. It travelled to earth on meteors and debris millions of years ago and has hidden within our lands ever since. Because of this it is a finite precious metal. 

Why is traditional extraction of Gold harmful? Since it's discovery, the value of this precious metal has caused our society to go after it at any cost... disregarding the health and wellbeing of the earth and the people used to extract it. Traditional gold mining methods are detrimental to the environment and people involved in the process, polluting local waters with arsenic and other toxic chemicals, and laying waste to the land it is found in. Modern day gold mining often involves slavery (yes slavery) or indentured servitude with horrific working conditions and health consequences to the people and children (yes children) forced to work these extremely poor and dangerous conditions.
