Construction workers have uncovered a gold stash valued at €9m hidden inside the walls of a cellar at a property in Belgium.

The discovery was made while builders were drilling as part of work to lay sewage pipes. During the work, they found the gold sealed within the cellar walls.

The material supplied does not give the exact location of the property in Belgium, the date of the discovery, or details about who owns the building. It also does not specify the form of the gold or how the €9m valuation was established.

The find is significant because of the reported value of the gold and the unusual circumstances in which it was discovered, with the cache concealed inside the structure of the property rather than found in an open storage area.

No further official response, investigation details, or information about what will happen to the gold has been provided in the supplied material.
