Ants and termites lead to gold

According to research from CSIRO.
Ant and termite nests could lead to hidden treasure according to research conducted by CSIRO.

Research published in science journalsPLoS ONE and Geochemistry: Exploration, Environment, Analysis,found that at a test site in the West Australian goldfields termite mounds contained high concentrations of gold. This gold indicates there is a larger deposit underneath.

“We’re using insects to help find new gold and other mineral deposits. These resources are becoming increasingly hard to find because much of the Australian landscape is covered by a layer of eroded material that masks what’s going on deeper underground,” Dr Aaron Stewart, CSIRO entomologist said.

Termites and ants burrow into this layer of material where a fingerprint of the underlying gold deposit is found, and bring traces of this fingerprint to the surface.
