After that, he brought a piece of gold he dug to sell to a shop in Kalgoorlie city. And the owner of the shop uploaded this golden image on Facebook last week.

Shop owner Matt Cook said on The Daily Mail, the "massive" gold was found while the man wandered the salt fields in Western Australia a few weeks ago.

The Goldfields area has historically been known as Western Australia's gold mine, where people often dig gold.

Every year, there are several times when people find large pieces of gold. These gold lumps often need heavy machinery to detect.
