in Sacramento CA when it actually came from Australia,

All gold carries a Molecular Finger print of make up by region.

It wouldn't be hard to tell if it did or not. Cool

I know the Aussie soil will stain most things including your skin, and ya boots tyres etc have no chance nor do
ya clothes, where I was it was red clay and if it rained it was really sticky and out west there are patches of
Bull dust that you can drive into and not see it and if it rains it turns to soup and then you get really stuck,
But that Lump looks like Iron deposits encrusted on it, It's a shame such a beautiful piece is causing so much
trouble, Maybe if he sells it because he bought it he will have to pay alot of tax on it and that's because of profit,
and if he says he found it he wont have to pay so much because it wont be seen as profit??

Nothing is taxable until it's sold.

With the Right Records there may not be any taxes due.

How much did he spend to find it?

How Long did he spend trying to find it?
