Missing mint gold fuels Ottawa heist speculation
Royal Canadian Mint may have dissolved 15 million in gold into hydrochloric acid, making it invisible to detectors. Experts caution such liquid gold could be smuggled under tight security and hidden in the refinery, with 17,514 ounces missing between April and October 2008 amid a new inventory system rollout. RCMP investigation pending.
