Not questioning you in a negative way, but since FDR confiscated the gold, how are we able to buy gold today?
Rules changed
By what method is gold very first obtained? Also, the US is one of many countries with a market for gold.
As for the emergency banking act section that "allowed" them to confiscate and ban private gold ownership, the US government ended that in 1970.

Do you mean prospecting, using a strainer in a shallow river, or mining?
I'm surprised they ended it at all. Usually the government never gives up a power/authority it gives itself.
