What was "Brown Gold"?

I have two answer which one you need do that

Tobacco was called “brown gold” and “green gold,” because when tobacco is grown in the ground it is a green color; when it is dried, the tobacco leaves turn a brown color.Instead, they asked the man who sold the tobacco for them to send them things from England that they could not buy in Virginia.

The trees have been called “Brown Gold,” a name that reflects their economic worth in the area's economy. Together, the provinces of Mpumalanga, KwaZulu-Natal, and the Eastern Cape contain roughly 80 percent of South Africa's commercial plantations of trees.
