Title
Gum Leaves Are Rich in Tiny Gold Nuggets.
Abstract
The article discusses 2013 research finding that eucalyptus trees in the Kalgoorlie area of Western Australia are bringing gold up through their root systems, that is then excreted through their leaves. It is said that researchers used an x-ray imaging device to find the gold. The possibility of using vegetation to test for underground minerals is noted.
