This photo taken on October 12, 2009, shows a Bangladeshi man displaying a speck of gold that was recovered from a sewer at the city's historic Tanti Bazaar in Dhaka. There are around 400 gold shops and small artisan factories at Dhaka's Tanti Bazaar, most of which have been run by Hindu goldsmiths since the market was founded in the 18th century.
