Have your enhydro crystals dropped in value? The Timmins mine in Canada has yielded some ancient water purported to be between 1.5 2.6 billion years old at a depth of 2.4 km. Tested by using Xenon gas isotopes the date can't be too specific but is certainly the oldest water known to date. Further tests are being made for evidence of microbes that would have adapted to live in the fluid.
