Gold miner shows interest in finger-printing plan
One of Western Australia's largest gold mining company's says it would support a gold finger-printing database for the industry.
Gold finger-printing records the unique make up of gold from different deposits and allows theft investigators to track suspicious gold back to its original source.
The technology was presented to the gold industry at the Miners Hall of Fame in Kalgoorlie-Boulder yesterday.
The chairman of Croesus Mining, Michael Ivey, says he supports any technology that makes it harder to steal gold.
Mr Ivey says his colleagues in the industry are interested.
"Yes, I think the industry's keen to see if it's a process that we can take to the court stage," he said.
"It's got to be something that's going to be effective and I know that the gold squad are reasonably supportive of it, I know that people in the gold industry will take their counsel."
