Hi,
interesting read.
Gold leaves mark the spot for buried treasure - environment - 22 October 2013 - New Scientist
"It's not exactly 24-carat, but you could say some Australian eucalyptus trees are decorated with gold leaf. Trees growing above gold deposits 40 metres under ground incorporate the precious metal into their leaves.
Studying the leaves could point the way to gold deposits in remote areas difficult to assess using conventional tools."
