that shiny gold looking material.

In 1892, Mark Twain coined the expression “there’s gold in them thar hills,” and it is now obvious that this proverb still holds true for rural Victoria.
There, a novice prospector struck it rich, finding a nugget with a stunning value of $240,000.
A budget model Minelab Equinox 800 metal detector, which costs around $1200 at retail, was being used by the man.

“Do you think there’s $10,000 worth?” he asked. “I said, “Try $100,000,” as soon as it landed in my hand,” Kamp told 9News.

The “Golden Triangle” of Victoria, which extends from Ballarat through Bendigo and up to St. Arnaud, is where the rock was found.
There has never been a better moment to find and sell gold due to the recent increase in its value; even small nuggets may fetch more than $1000.
