YOU won't believe it when you read this - scientists have found gold growing on gum trees near Wudinna on the Eyre Peninsula.
In an Australian-first breakthrough, a team of CSIRO scientists discovered eucalyptus trees near the country town draw up tiny gold "nuggets" from the earth via their root system and then deposit the valuable metal on their leaves, bark and branches.
While scientists have found gold on trees before, it was never actually known how it got there.
CSIRO geochemist Dr Mel Lintern, lead author of the multi-million dollar project, said
the find could save mining and gold exploration companies "a lot of money".
"If they’re able to sample the trees (for gold) in place of drilling, then they’re going to save some money," he said.
