Hunt madly around. Are going all out to find (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unearth

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to find' is the definition.
(I know that unearth is a more specific form of the action locate)

'hunt madly around are going all' is the wordplay.
'madly' indicates an anagram.
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'are going all' becomes 'ear' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'hunt' anagrammed gives 'unth'.
'unth' going around 'ear' is 'UNEARTH'.

'out' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for unearth that I've seen before include "Disconnect terminal" , "Find by digging" , "Dig up - uncover" , "Bring out of obscurity" , "Discover" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
