Would it be possible to destroy gold?

I'm a writer. I have a scenario in which a sizable amount of gold needs to be rendered unable to be used, preferably completely destroyed. I know an acid like aqua regia is able to dissolve gold, but would there be a way to make it impossible (or atleast not work the cost) to chemically salvage the gold from the acid, or another way to permanently destroy gold?
