Nanogold vs. Bulk Gold Comparison by Dr. Chuck Ager
The most distinct characteristic of a nanomineral is its infinitesimal size. It is so small that it appears imperceptible to the human eye. However, this tiny object can do more remarkable things than its bulkier counterpart. Take for example the case of gold and nanogold. While regular bulk gold is really purely gold in color, nanogold can show in various colors. This examination was made by a professor in 2004. Dr. Charles “Chuck” Ager headed the Nanocharacterization Laboratory of Leigh’s Center for Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology at that time. Chuck Ager surveyed the wide range of properties of nanogold. When he viewed the gold particles, he found out that nanogold had special properties that are not found in normal bulk gold. While nanotechnology, nanominerals, and nanogold are comparatively new concepts, they have been around for a long time. Chuck Ager, founder and chairman of Nanominerals Corp, has more knowledge in the industry than almost anyone else. Nanominerals Corp makes use of the latest developed mining technology to trace and then extract deposits of nanogold from the ground. Dr. Chuck Ager’s techniques are more cost efficient and earth friendly than present day methods. There is no doubt then that Chuck Ager is today’s leader of the current nanotechnology application.
