Abstract
New mechanism for the observed inclusive B -> \eta'X decay is suggested. We argue that the dominant contribution to this amplitude is due to the Cabbibo favored b -> \bar{c}cs process followed by the transition \bar{c}c -> \eta'. A large magnitude of the "intrinsic charm" component of \eta' is of critical importance in our approach. Our results are consistent with an unexpectedly large Br(B -> \eta'+X) \sim 10^{-3} recently announced by CLEO. We stress the uniqueness of this channel for 0^{-+} gluonia search.
