[meteorite-list] Meteorites Delivered Earth's Gold

[Chauncey Walden]

John Hendry gave us a good description of gold forming processes but 
there is another method. This is the direct deposition of gold that has 
been dissolved by biologic processes and not necessarily at higher than 
surface temperatures. Here's one article:

and here is one of a somewhat unique example of gold crystallizing on a 
1908 gold coin found in Alaska:

So, has anyone come across a gold plated meteorite?

I drove by the Holiday Inn show in Denver yesterday and it looks like 
they are already cranking up.
