Description
If I told you there is an African country whose soil harbors a mineral with amazing powers that is used for making stunning, magical objects!
Well, this country does exist and is no imaginary land. And the fascinating metal that was extracted from it was none other than gold.
It’s the gold that jewels and holy objects were made out of. The same gold that was used to design this otherworldly jewel called the Rao pectoral.
