Free Public Lecture - Formation of Gold Nuggets
Dr Robert Hough - CSIRO Exploration and Mining / CRC LEME - 12 OCTOBER 2006
To celebrate Earth Science Week, the Cooperative Centre for Landscape Environments and Mineral Exploration (CRC LEME) is giving a special presentation on the formation of gold nuggets by research scientist, Dr Rob Hough (CSIRO Exploration and Mining).

Gold nuggets are a rare and importance scientific resource, as their shape and composition provide important clues about the environmental conditions that led to their creation.
Most gold nuggets come from pre-existing rocks, but research has shown that chemical reactions play an important role in their formation. Other more recent theories suggest microbial processes are also involved.
