Gold is over $1,000 per ounce! That means that every one of those 70 pound gold bricks you always see in the movies is now worth $1.12 Million! It’s enough to make you wish you owned a gold mine! Well, if you did, here is what it would take to get that gold out of the ground and actually turn it into one of those bricks.

This clip is brought to us by the good folks at Reuters, and the mine being profiled is the Newmont Nevada gold mine. There is also more info on Gold Mining over at Wikipedia.
