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...

not sure where you got 814kg from as the article said over 2000kg

BBC price is going to be based on a single gram in a bar in London not bulk price and you can get to $1 billion at 15%.

2000x1000x£50=£100million=$150million
cut it with 11 tonnes of random shit and you're there - it's only 3 lots of doubling-up.
