Has to do with Specific Gravity Jaros. There was a thread about it. Here's a Video of one method.

They were on display at the Bash last week, all legit.
They can determine the weight of the gold doing a Specific Gravity test, which is simple and anyone can do it.

OOps, beaten to the punch.

The gold find is 100% legit. The location, private land near Tarnagulla, is also correct. A 5000 was involved. The exact location, depth, coil, settings, circumstances etc will just have to remain one of life's little mysteries. The point is, the crew took a chance on accessing private land and have done very well in addition to these finds.
