Germany 'braced for gold rush'

A province in eastern Germany is bracing itself for a gold rush this summer after a pensioner found a nugget in a stream.

The 9.64 gram nugget Heinz Martin found while he was out for a walk near Katzhuette in Thuringia proved to be the country's biggest find for 200 years.

ABC News says news of the £1,011 find has spread rapidly across Germany, aided by hordes of TV crews who have converged on the former gold-mining area
