[edit] Gold from mercury

For gold, also one can start from 201Hg in theory. Check masses at http://conjeturas.blogia.com/2006/061601-mercurio.php Arivero 16:24, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

If at some future date, gold can be efficently transmuted from other elements, its value as a store of wealth could plummet overnight. Even if all nations(including the rogues) and corporations(including the unethical) limited its production, the uncertainty factor of a possible commoditization, at will by any one player, would destroy its status permanently as a true precious metal. Its an interesting problem and one we will likely one day face.209.101.236.168 (talk) 07:44, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Transmutation

The two articles are similar. One just shows some specifics which would be a good addition to the other article.--71.102.144.27 04:43, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

I'm deleting the mergeto tag because that's a disambiguation page now. — Randall Bart (talk) 18:22, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Units

This article states that 1 kg of palladium is produced for every ton (imperial), could they mean every tonne (metric). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.65.87.238 (talk) 02:58, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
