The Ethyl ship extracts bromine from sea water for antiknock fuels, with production centered in Michigan and Strassfurt. Bromine has shifted from a wartime poison to a modern engine aid, while rich deposits reveal ancient geology and Caspian sea connections.

River of Gold Is to Be Drained
New Zealand plans to dam Lake Wakatipu to drain the River of Gold, enabling recovery of vast gold deposits from gravel pockets. The Kararau river, dubbed the River of Gold, has yielded immense sums in tributaries but not from the main source. Engineers anticipate millions in gold from the first winter and summer, with 122 claims organized under a 20 percent royalty to a parent company. The scheme, approved by the government, targets seasonal mining after damming to hold waters during dry periods.
