Pictures of nuggets from Russia are rare.  Not all of these are gold but some very nice ones are!

That's some nice gold, a 36 KG nugget 🙂 Wow!  

Nice to see the Amber from Kaliningrad on there, 90% of the Worlds amber comes from there, pretty incredible, and they can fossick for it and find it on beaches and so on.  I'd love to do that and find myself some Amber, they even find it with ancient insects in it from the time of the Dinosaurs.

They can find platinum nuggets in Russia too, as seen by that 7.86kg beauty in your link.

The Ural Mountains appear to hold a large amount of gold.

I try to do some reading and post things of interest here.  It is nice to see some real stuff and real history.

There seems to be a theme behind all of the largest nuggets in the world.  That 'theme' would be 'Found in the 1860s or so!'
