Two young school kids have discovered actual treasure, potentially worth thousands of dollars, at a secret spot on a coromandel beach. Nine year old Callan and seven year old Eva discovered a chunky lump of kauri resin or gum while out wandering the shore. In the past the fossilised resin, a byproduct from kauri trees has been used for chewing gum and medicines but is now mainly decorative when polished up. Previously a ten kilo lump of the stuff sold for $16,000. We caught up with Coromandel dad James McMillan and his children Callan who is 9, and 7 year old Eva to see what the young beachcombers plan to do with their find.
