English: Found the largest natural gold bureau after 500 years, cost 1.5 billion
The gold hunter in England has discovered the largest natural gold in 500 years, with the width equivalent to a golf ball.
According to Express, the amount of gold found is estimated at 85.7g, priced up to 50,000 pounds (more than 1.5 billion dong). Hunters found gold lumps when diving in a river in Scotland.
Natural gold is found in a river in Scotland.
This is considered the largest natural gold found in the UK in the last 500 years.
Gold expert Leon Kirk said: 'This is a very rare discovery. It is difficult to determine the value of this gold. '
'I think it costs about 50,000 pounds. But because it is so rare, the billionaires can absolutely pay higher , 'Kirk said. The width of the gold ball is equivalent to a golf ball.
This gold department was found two years ago but only recently released to the public. The unnamed 40-year-old man only found it in a river in Scotland, without giving the exact location.
According to the gold hunter, he found a gold piece simply by observing. Many gold hunters wear diving suits, face down the river in search of signs of gold.
The 40-year-old said he had experience finding gold for the past 20 years.'I see a crack in the rock so follow. At first, I thought the gold was only a few grams, but I didn't expect it to be that big. '
'I took off my gloves, took the gold and jumped out of the water to shout out of happiness with a friend standing nearby,' the man added.
'We were all shocked and couldn't believe what just happened. I have not seen any such big natural gold in life. '
The gold department weighs 85.71g, estimated to cost 50,000 pounds (about 1.5 billion dong).
For the past 2 years, the man has kept the gold in the safe box, not yet intending to sell. According to Leon Kirk, museums may be interested in this gold because of its considerable size.
Neil Clark, an expert at the University of Glasgow, Scotland, said there could still be a lot of gold where people found the gold lump.'It is difficult to confirm whether this gold is separated from a larger piece of gold. It seems to have been under water for a long time. '
'But since 500 years have passed, the natural gold lump has grown so it can be very difficult to find the same gold in the near future , ' Clark said.
The largest gold mine ever found weighed 59g in Cornwall. In 2016, 97g gold was found off Anglesey.
But it was gold that originated in Australia, sank under the sea with a gold ship in the journey from Australia to England in 1859.
