Not so, dear friend. Gold like any other element (other than the noble gases) has an electron affinity that can be easily overcome by electrolysis. A few volts is all that is required.
Chemical Predictor Ver 3.0 Copyright © 1997-1998 Ivan Kassal Half reaction data: Half reaction: Au -> Au+++ + 3e Half reaction type: Oxidation Half reaction potential (E): -1.498 V Half reaction equilibrium constant (log K): -76.03848 The fact that gold does not react with most other elements is because of its place at the top of the pecking order. There are few elements, and no metals, which will exchange electrons with gold, not in part due to the fact that the most favoured gold ion has lost 3 electrons. The ocean is only the solution part of an electrolysis machine, other metals are corroded by an attack of chlorine ions rather than electrolysis. Electrolysis occurs when 2 dissimilar metals are joined electrically in a conductive solution. There is no reason that I can see, why a CS generator cannot generate colloidal gold, it may just take a good while longer. BTW you might be surprised to learn that hydrogen peroxide has the potential to remove electrons from gold while most acids cannot.
