Death Valley Days1952
John Burk:
It ain't gold you should be lookin' for.
Aaron Winters:
What do you mean by that?
John Burk:
A man could retire right comfortable if he could find a proper deposit of borax.
Aaron Winters:
A deposit of what?
John Burk:
Borax!
Aaron Winters:
Borax? What's that?
John Burk:
It's a mineral they use to make soaps and medicines with. It's rare, but they found a pocket of it up there about five years ago. Findin' some more would be pretty worthwhile.
Aaron Winters:
What is it about it that makes it so worthwhile to be diggin' for?
John Burk:
The scarcity of it, that's what! The only place they can it now is a country called Tibet. They load it on the backs of sheep and haul it over the Himalayas.
