Street value is roughly $30-40 per gram.. which comes out to $24,420,000 - $32,560,000 if you sold it 100% pure..

even at $100 a gram which is fucking rediculous, that'd be 81,400,000

to get $1,000,000,000 you'd have to cut that shit:
13:1 @ $100 a gram
31:1 @ $40 a gram
41:1 @ $30 a gram

just stupid to me their calculations...
