In Longhui County, Hunan province, China, a villager named Liu discovered about 10 grams of gold particles worth nearly Rs 1.6 lakh inside a duck's stomach while slaughtering it. The gold was confirmed after a burning test. The duck likely ingested the particles while feeding near a river historically known for gold mining. Experts note gold passes through digestive systems without harm, though larger pieces may cause health issues. The family views the find as a sign of good luck.
