It is estimated that there are about 197,576 metric tons of gold that has been mined and is above ground, with the total amount of gold mined throughout history being around 190,000 metric tons. It is difficult to estimate the total amount of gold still in the earth's crust, but it is believed to be significantly more than what has been mined.
Gold is a naturally occurring element found in the Earth's crust. It is formed through geological processes over millions of years and is typically extracted through mining or panning in rivers.
Some natural resources found in the Sahel region include gold, uranium, oil, and natural gas, as well as agricultural products such as millet, sorghum, and livestock. These resources play a significant role in the economies of countries in the Sahel region.
Yes, gold was found in Central Otago during the 1860s gold rush. This discovery led to a major influx of prospectors and miners to the region, which contributed significantly to the local economy and development of Central Otago.
Gold is typically formed within mineral veins found in host rocks such as quartz. The primary way gold is deposited in rock is through hydrothermal processes, where hot fluids carrying gold and other minerals flow through cracks in the rock, depositing the gold as the fluid cools and reacts with the host rocks. Another way gold can be formed in rock is through sedimentary processes, where gold particles are transported by water and accumulate in sediments over time.
The second largest gold nugget in the world was found in Sovereign Hill. There is still gold there, although not as many people dig for gold as used to.
Gold can be found pretty much all over the world. The largest producers of gold in Europe include Russia, Sweden, Denmark, Romania, and Poland.

They found enough to double the world's known gold supply. That's alot.
Over 200,000 ounces of gold have been taken from Gabriel's gully in Lawrence, otago, New Zealand
Gold miners never found a set amount a day. The amounts changed based on location, weather, and how much had been mined prior.
There is a heep of gold
Much more gold has been found in recent years than was found in the Gold rush of 1849. Mostly because of modern mining methods not available to the miners in 1849 (such as heap leaching.) I read in a mining magazine that more Gold was found in 1994 than any year in this country's history.
he found a bit of gold during 1856
a lot
I think it was in south austalia and up north queensland.
Well here is one resource that pirates would have loved. There is GOLD in the ocean. In fact there is so much gold in the oceans that everyone in the world would get a fair share of it.
