Scientists claim to have struck gold in every sample of urine taken from a herd of cows.
Seven years of research at Junagadh Agricultural University (JAU) in India are said to have brought forth the startling discovery. The researchers took 500 samples from calves, pregnant cows and male animals and found traces of gold in all of them.
Analysis of the urine samples by the Food Testing Laboratory of JAU showed 10-30mg of gold per litre of urine. The gold can be extracted and solidified using chemical processes.
