Of course the machine they run dirt through would just spit it out.


But Dakota Fred might trip on it walkin to the can so don't be suprised if it shows up in a future episode.

Article makes it sound like beginner's luck. I think it's smart of the shop owner to not disclose the exact location of the find. People would fight over the spot most likely.

Although I don't think it's smart of them to admit how rare it is ... If their business is attracting gold seekers, yelling "this never happens here, how unusual!" seems like the wrong approach

The find was in Australia...Victoria West. This place is more akin to Death Valley and easily 3 times bigger.

The find is amazing but it is just being in the right place at the right time. There's lots more out there
and we may or may not here about past or future finds.
