In Them Thar Hills?Huttonian is highly indebted to a very local bloggee for a link :
http://www.breakingnews.ie/Ireland/mhgbidausnql/rss2/
to a news article about a major gold strike in Ireland-not far from the Norn Iron South Armagh border. This could be the biggest 'gold field' in the British Isles even bigger than Scotland's Klondyke at Tyndrum. The bloggee wonders about the chance of finding gold in the Mournes.
I am not sure if anyone has looked in County Down. Not for gold anyhow. For the IRA's weapons 'beyond use' or otherwise, possibly Its much easier to find treasure south of the border especially where the Wee People are to be found. All you need to do is to catch a Leprechaun and only let him go when he has led you*to Fairy Gold-failing that Irish Rainbows invariably have crocks of gold where the bow strikes the earth. Its quite easy when
you know how.
Or so they say
*The Leprechaun imaged above is more likely to led you to the pub
