BOOM! Rare “earth” elements—gold—silver on the moon. “Imagine taking a pile of metal five times larger than the Big Island of Hawaii and burying it underground. That’s how much unexpected mass we detected on the Moon”—Peter B. James, Ph.D.https://www.baylor.edu/mediacommunications/news.php?action=story&story=210457 …
Frank, indeed! To the moon! Well I have spent many decades studying the continuants of Apollo-Amor objects. If this is a “natrual” metallic object it would have had to be similar to Apollo-Amor, for this mass. If this is the case, I am underestimating the amount.
In all seriousness though, I didn’t see if the article specifically mention how much gold, or silver there could be. Are you just speculating?
