Actually, the halo and ions produced would be considered the feces of microbes, while the deposition of metallic gold would be considered the feces of other microbes. The flatulence of microbes is thought to be a gaseous by-product of digesting gold and other minerals. According to several studies, the flatulence of microbes contributes to the accumulation of toxic gases that must be ventilated from mine shafts. If there are any gold atoms in these gaseous discharges, I suppose they could be called "the golden fart".
