All matter degrades with time and releases ions as they do.

Ions are modified atoms. When the atom loses electrons or gains electrons in this process of electron exchange, it is said to be IONIZED. For ionization to take place, there must be a transfer of energy which results in a change in the internal energy of the atom. Earth acts like this. An atom having more than its normal amount of electrons acquires a negative charge, and is called a NEGATIVE ION. The atom that gives up some of its normal electrons is left with less negative charges than positive charges and is called a POSITIVE ION.




ERM... GOLD DOES NOT DECAY that's why it is found in it's NATURAL state in the ground.. MILLIONS of years old DUH!!. Iron decays (rust) Aluminium decays to become bauxite , Copper, silver, etc, etc. Ah perhaps you are looking for the ADSENCE of gold ions, AH I see it now, another cop out in the genuine explanation, oh well NVM at least I saw through the psuedo scisnce in time. and just HOW do these target substances produce ionised particles anyhow? PLEASE TELL US how these ions are produced, I want the exact process please, becasue I'm having difficulty in working out how it happens.

Go make an ioniser, only a lightning strike NOT the natural CHEMICAL decay of metallic material could produce ions, and as the rain (usually goes with lightning) is supposed to "dampen" 'scuse the pun the ionic field, then this is another inconsistency I think.

I had the "experience" of testing a Mineoro FG80 last week. Random beeping and nothing else. Totally unusable.
