Gold prospecting is becoming more and more popular. The lure of uncovering a gold nugget of any size is addictive and every weekend you will see people, specially on the beaches, walking along with their headphones on and listening intently, oblivious to all around them.
Not that you will find gold on a beach, not in the form of a nugget anyway. But you will find gold jewelry – rings, necklaces or watches.
The waves have an uncanny knack of slipping those precious items from unwary fingers and necks.
