"They had to use a crane to lift up the core because it was so heavy with gold", Rosehill.
Not sure if they need a crane...well, a small one perhaps, since solid gold is almost 20 times heavier than water, if my memory serves me correctly.
Another tidbit: Just saw POG broke through the "psychological barrier" of USD 1300/oz
...and that is 1300 x 1.10 = Cad $1430./oz
