Hi, a few years ago, I bought some compost, so used it in my garden. Then a years passed, and I began to re pot plants, and on closer inspection began to notice a golden shimmer.
I decided to put some into tester containers, and have it investigated.
I contacted several places, including the Birmingham jewellery quarter, and the London gold refinery, both of which confirmed that there is a content of gold. They advised me to place it all within containers and wait for it to separate itself over a few years.
The problem I have is who can I contact to fully separate the two, in order to get the content confirmed, and to melt it into sections?

Fire should separate the compost from the gold.
 

compost is made up of plant material, sometimes minerals such as expanded mica (Vermiculite) are added
if there was gold it would be as a fine coating on the surface of these other minerals
and might give a reading of gold but would only be micrometers thick and not have much value.
might contact a gold panner like from the Lake District to have go at separating any gold out.
if it has value (£ $ per ton) then you would have to find the specific site of where it came from.
