Yes. For example, Mt Erebus, on Ross Island, Antarctica -- the earth's southern-most active volcano -- spews gold flakes. Scientists track these flakes to confirm wind directions and to track the output of the volcano and its unique ash signature in search of other chemicals involved.
There is gold in Antarctica, but it is not believed to be present in large quantities sufficient to warrant mining. In addition, there is a worldwide ban on any sort of mining in and around the continent of Antarctica.
no, it cannot be found in Antarctica because for ages Antarctica has never been rich in Natural Resources . this may be because of its severe climatic conditions
Yes.
But it is not mine-able given the Antarctic Treaty, which dedicates all land south of 60 degrees S to the scientific study of the health of planet earth.
There are no current gold mines in Antarctica. The continent is covered with ice sheet that make it uneconomic to mine for gold.
Gold is mined on every continent except Antarctica.
Well Pooh Bear can come in gold in Asia, Antarctica, England, and the U.S.
coal, copper, gold, iron ore, manganese, and zinc
minerals (gold silver copper platinum) ,krill, coal and oil
Common minerals that are found in Antarctica are antimony, chromium, copper, gold, lead, molybdenum, tin, uranium and zinc. There are also large deposits of coal and sedimentary iron found in some Antarctic areas.
It is found on all continents (w/ the exception of Antarctica) but is most abundant in Africa, especially South Africa (country).

Africa is the continent that contains most of the diamonds and gold. Specifically, countries like South Africa, Botswana, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are major producers of these precious minerals.
Mining takes place where ever on earth the natural deposits occur. This is true on every continent except Antarctica.
Iron ore, chromium, copper, gold, nickel, platinum and other minerals, coal and hydrocarbons have all been found in Antarctica.
Mt Erebus is known for spewing gold flecks with its ash. This phenomenon helps scientists track the flow of ash from the volcano.
