Cocaine is manufuctured in various places, but normally in close proximity to it's natural source. This source is mostly in the foothills of the Andes Mountain Range of South America (usually between 500 and 1500 metres AMSL). This is where the leaves are picked off the Cocoa plant and dried in the sun. Bags of the said leaves are usually transported to a manufacturing facility nearby where up to 150kgs of cocoa leaves are used to produce a paste weighing about 1kg. A single leaf only consists of 0.3%-0.5% cocaine, but once the paste is formed, it is usually between 30%-80% cocaine.

What is the Sources of crack cocaine?
Crack cocaine is a crude freebase form of cocaine. Cocaine is generally not made synthetically, but rather extracted from the coca plant, which is extensively cultivated for cocaine production. The extracted cocaine is then purified and reacted to form a more stable salt for distribution. This salt of cocaine is reacted, typically by the consumer or 'dealer', with sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) to free the cocaine base from the salt, hence the term freebase. Although there are other ways of producing purer freebase cocaine, these methods are more complex and often involve dangerous chemicals. Crack cocaine is typically not used to refer to the purer freebase. In fact, the term 'crack' comes from the crackling noise that is produced by the residual baking soda in the product, which decomposes when heated.

Cocaine triggers the sudden release of?
Some people might think that cocaine triggers an instant release of the chemical dopamine naturally produced in the body (the "pleasure" chemical). this assumption is inacurate. what cocaine does is plug dopamine receptors with its own mimic chemicals, and flurishes the receiving receptors with it. the reason cocaine addicts may experience depression is because it blocks natural dopamine from transporting from point A to point B for a time (depending on amount of use,the person using, etc.) after the euphoric effects wear off. But man you gotta love that cocaine.
