Australian gold miners make 'once-in-a-lifetime' discovery
Miners in the small Western Australia town of Kambalda have unearthed gold deposits so large it took three men to get them out of the ground. Geologists are calling it a "once-in-a-lifetime discovery" especially since mining in the area had traditionally been geared towards nickel. The deposits are worth more than 11 million US dollars.
Jarrod Lucas is a journalist with ABC and based down the road from Kambalda were the gold was found.
