Deep-Sea Gold deposits discovered off the coast of Australia
A recent study by the university of Queensland has revealed significant gold deposits in the deep- sea near the Australian coast. These deposits were found at depth exceeding 4000 meters, with scientists believing that the gold may have originated from ancient volcanic activity or other geological processes. This discovery opens up possibilities for new underwater mining techniques and suggests that rich, untapped resources may still exists in the oceans.
