Geologists have discovered a large gold deposit in Hunan Province, China and experts call it a “supergiant.” The Geological Bureau of Hunan Province announced their discovery in the Wangu gold field. It is estimated to contain 1,000 metric tons of gold, valuing around 600 billion yuan or almost $83 billion. However, some experts question the feasibility of this finding and whether the scope is as large as estimates say. The deposit was identified through extensive exploration, which included drilling 150,000 meters and analyzing 40 distinct gold veins. The highest-grade samples contained 138 grams of gold per ton of ore, surpassing the typical benchmark of eight grams for high-grade deposits. The initial exploration discovered 300 tons of gold at depths of up to 2,000 meters. Further analysis suggests that the deposit could extend up to 3,000 meters.
