I have read about this bacteria before in a gold panners magazine. I used to do a little plaster mining and in areas where the only gold we could find was flour gold in the sediment we would encounter tiny amorphous shaped nuggets that seemed totally out of place. I looked into why they existed and this was the best explanation.
