    Likely part of the existing collection process. Tokyo is very efficient with its waste management.

    Gees how many gold medals are they giv8ng out, surely they are not giving gold medals out for participation.

    At 6grams gold required per gold medal, to use 30 kilos of gold, I presume all the IOC members will be getting solid gold keyrings
