The Dhaka Times Desk Extracting natural gold costs billions of dollars worldwide, researchers say Eucalyptus tree By looking at the leaf sample, it will be known whether there is gold in the area or how low it is!
Yes, although it is a surprising study, it is true that the roots of the Eucalyptus tree penetrate very deep into the soil, so that various minerals come up from different layers of the soil through the roots of this tree. These minerals are stored in eucalyptus leaves. So by testing the samples of eucalyptus leaves, it will be known if there is gold under the soil of the area! If so, how much gold is there?
researcher Melvyn Lintern He said, "Research on Eucalyptus trees has revealed that the roots of these trees go so deep into the soil where there are different underground minerals at different levels. Eucalyptus roots pick up minerals from the ground, so samples of these trees can provide information about what's underground in that area!”
Researchers say that eucalyptus trees can be a powerful tool for mineral exploration, through which it is very easy to know if there is any gold under the soil of that place without using expensive equipment and digging the ground!
Apart from this, various circles think that this research of the researchers is bringing special benefits from the economic aspect as well. All over the world, huge sums of money are spent on mining alone to extract gold from underground, which can now be easily detected by samples of eucalyptus leaves. As a result, huge amount of exploration cost will be saved.
