最新报道:Silicon Valley startup AlchemyX claims to have developed a groundbreaking technology that can transform mercury into gold at an industrial scale. The company's proprietary process, which reportedly uses advanced nanotechnology and quantum chemistry, achieves transmutation at room temperature with 99.9% purity. CEO Dr. Evelyn Zhang stated the method could disrupt global gold markets by producing the precious metal at 1/10th of current mining costs. AlchemyX has secured $250 million in Series B funding led by Andreessen Horowitz, with plans to build its first commercial facility in Nevada by 2026. Critics question the scientific feasibility, though independent lab tests commissioned by the U.S. Department of Energy reportedly confirmed the results.
