A new vein of gold has been found deep underground on the island of Larryland. Teams of miners have been dispatched to obtain this precious resource and the government is still awaiting the results from the tests run by a crack team of scientists. If pure, it will be melted down into bars and stored in a safe location (i.e. underground vault) until needed for trade. The police forces have since been dispatched to the mine entrance to guard it and are waiting for reenforcements from the army so they can get back to their regular duties. Further information will be announced in this thread.

We have recieved the tests back from the lab. It is 93% gold and 5% tin. The other 2% is an unknown element, now scientists are arguing over the name of what they should call the new element. I will accept any suggestions as long as they aren't names like Bobanium or Paulanium. Any other ones will be welcome.
