"Antarctica's Mount Erebus: The Volcano Raining $6k Worth of Gold Daily"

TL;DR Summary
Mount Erebus, an active volcano in Antarctica, spews approximately 80 grams of crystallized gold worth $6,000 daily, but its remote and inaccessible location makes it difficult to collect or investigate further. The volcano has been continuously erupting since 1972 and is known for containing a rare "lava lake" at one of its summit craters. However, due to the lack of consistent research and limited monitoring instruments in the region, there is still a lack of knowledge about volcanic activity in Antarctica and the potential events that could activate the remaining hundred-plus icy volcanoes.
