<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1223705, member: 22143&quot;]What industrial processes uses pure gold?</p><p><br /></p><p>If you can&#039;t specify your industry, then you are simply providing unverifiable anecdotal comments that can&#039;t considered in the context of this topic.&nbsp; I certainly don&#039;t want you to reveal your secrets.&nbsp; So fair enough, we will assume it has no meaning here then. </p><p><br /></p><p>If gold is just another commodity, then why does the United States have an entire army base protecting the vast majorty of it&#039;s 8000 tons of gold reserves.&nbsp; In fact, why bother to have gold reserves at all.&nbsp; In the form that it is stored in, gold bars, it has no other use.&nbsp;&nbsp; (I&#039;ll note BTW these bars are .91 gold)&nbsp; &nbsp; Furthermore why does the NY Federal reserve sit on another 7000-8000 tons of gold in the basement of its NY Fed office?&nbsp;&nbsp; Why does the Federal Reserve list gold as a financial asset?&nbsp;&nbsp; An honest answer to that question would quickly yield the conclusion that we are not talking about bushels of corn or pork bellies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
