not true, Huon pine from Tasmania is worth $30,000/cubic metre. Acacia Peuce also known as Waddy Wood can fetch around $50,000/cubic metre. It is also the hardest and heaviest timber in the world weighing in at 1400kg/cubic metre. It is similar to the African Blackwood in appearance except Waddy Wood flouresces under black light.
