Preferred Abstract (Original): 
Gold nanoparticles supported on nickel manganese mixed oxide were synthesised by co-precipitation method. the catalytic properties of these materials were investigated for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol using molecular oxygen as an oxidant. It was ob-served that the calcination temperature and the size of the particle play an important role in the process.
