Today's Big Idea | | | | What C. metallidurans does is take trace elements of gold found in soil and put them together. It does this as a survival mechanism as it exists in soil with high heavy toxic metal (such as gold and copper) content. When both copper and gold elements enter the bacteria, the little guy activates an enzyme called CopA which turns the elements back into their slightly larger and harder to digest forms. Multiply this exponentially, and you have an army of tiny gold miners that could one day revolutionize the gold mining industry. | | | | |
