The gold squad has been hunting thieves for 100 years — and business is booming.

The price of gold has never been higher against the Australian dollar, and neither has the temptation to steal it.

Key points:
•The squad travels all over WA and the NT, inspecting every gold mine at least twice a year
•Mining companies have paid for the service since 1907
•Stories of black sludge and murder have marked the Gold Squad's history

As gold miners from around the country gather in Kalgoorlie for the annual Diggers and Dealers mining conference, the Gold Stealing Detection Unit (GSDU) in the Goldfields city is as busy as it was when it began in 1907.
