Little bear in Surinam trained to get gold (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
ursa minor
'little bear' is the definition.
('Ursa Minor' can be a synonym of 'little bear')
'surinam trained to get gold' is the wordplay.
'trained' indicates an anagram (to train can mean to grow something into a shape).
'to get' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'gold' becomes 'or' ('or' is the heraldic name for gold).
'surinam' anagrammed gives 'ursamin'.
'ursamin'+'or'='URSA MINOR'
'in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for ursa minor that I've seen before include "Paddington, say" , "Paddington, for example" , "Group of stars" , "Star group" , "Little Bear constellation, to the old Romans" .)
