A volcano in Antarctica is spewing out £5,000's worth of gold dust every day and because of how slowly it erupts, the gold is crystallising and forming.

Mount Erebus was discovered in 1841 by Captain Sir James Clark Ross who named it after his boat as he and his crew were sailing by it.

It's the world's southernmost active volcano and one of two active volcanoes in Antarctica out of the 138 on the continent.
