Olympic Medals Recycled.

The gold, silver and bronze medallions presented to winning athletes as they tread on to the winners’ platform at theVancouver Winter Olympic Games could well be being made from the insides of an old computer, which means they are recycling metal.

The producer of the medals for this Olympics is for the first time using certain amounts of recycled matter into the medals. Medals in the past have been made of freshly mines ores.
