An amateur gold digger has found an enormous gold nugget worth 240,000 AUD ($160,000) in Australia. Discovered in the state of Victoria in an area known as the "Golden Triangle," the gold-filled rock weighs 4.6 kilograms (10.1 pounds), with the precious metal making up 2.6 kilograms (5.7 pounds).

Named the "Lucky Strike Nugget," the gold specimen was taken to prospecting shop Lucky Strike Gold toward the end of last year and dropped into the hands of shop owner Darren Kamp, who valued it. "When it hit my hand, my jaw dropped with it," Kamp told CNN on Tuesday. "It was just incredible. Once-in-a-lifetime find."

One thing that keeps amateur prospecting popular is that as technology improves, new detectors come out they are more sensitive, more discreet, and can detect gold further underground than previous models. So people can go over the same well-trodden fields and find gold that others previously overlooked.

Does this rock in any way help us understand how gold is formed? Is the rock otherwise quartz? I’m guessing but maybe molten lava contains gold and settles at lowest point unless a rock like this blocks golds flow.

Just because a man has a few extra pounds and a few extra dollars, all of a sudden he's a "huge nugget"? smh, good luck to him and his future wife.

It also depends on the value. If that number we are seeing is just the value of the processed gold, there is likely more value in the raw nuggets itself. It's be better if it were and all jangly put pure nuggets, but still.

I hope they do take that money and invest it, kind of like a gambler building up a nest egg.
