Gold nuggets weighing three and a half ounces were found on Thursday on Int. Yatai in Shansi province by coolies employed by the Okura Mining Company, the "Nichi Nichi" chain of newspapers reported today.
The Taiyuan correspondent for the chain of papers reported the discovery, the "Nichi Nichi" said. Several other nuggets of a much smaller size were also found on the same spot, the newspaper said it learned.
The nuggets were reported to have been located about 20 yards above a place once mined by Chinese Communist soldiers, the paper said. The spot was located near the banks of the Puto River.—Domel.
