Brent Shannon and Ethan West found the nuggets near goldmining town
Tarnagulla in Victoria state.
Their lucky find was shown on TV show Aussie Gold Hunters, which aired on
Thursday.
The men dug up the ground and used metal detectors to detect gold in the
area.
"These are definitely one of the most significant finds," Ethan West said,
according to CNN. "To have two large chunks in one day is quite amazing."
They found the nuggets, which have a combined weight of 3.5kg (7.7lb), in a
number of hours with the help of Mr West's father, according to the
Discovery Channel which airs the programme.
