Hi Fred,
I was wondering the same thing. But after reading the math and WM6's explanation, It is obviously working by mutual precognition. This is an inherent property of the optics when exceeding the speed of light. Of course, time can reverse in these conditions, as well as distortions in space, which provides the key to the answer to your question.

Because these gold photons are traveling faster than the speed of light, you are able to detect the presence of gold before any of the slower gold ions can reach you. This is the exciting side benefit from this method.... there is there is no danger from massive gold ion migration. The gold ions cannot move as fast as the gold photons, so gold ions fall to the ground before arriving at the LRL. This means you are safe from the horrors of gold statue conversion. With some careful design, this new method will be able to deposit all the buried gold via ion migration techniques into a big heap of metal some distance in front of where you are holding the LRL. I think you won't need to carry a shovel.

But be sure to take your high top boots, in case the need arises.

Best wishes,
