Application of Gold-Finding Information

It is not uncommon to be sampling in a place that has visible signs of having deposits of gold, and even yet cannot find absolutely anything. There are many reasons why a deposit is not where it should be, but the main reason is probably someone who has found first.

Every once in a while deposits of gold are found in places in which visible signs not evidence deposits in the site do. The geological conditions change through a long period of time. Bleed-offs of ancient gravel and other high bench deposits can sometimes place the gold in places in which current geological conditions would not deserve to be researched.

It is because of these reasons, where every discrepancy manifests, that there is a common saying among miners: “Gold is where one finds it!”  There is not a truer phrase than this about the yellow metal. However, there is always a reason for gold to be founding locations in which it is actually found, as well as there is also a reason for not finding it in locations in which there are signs that will show its presence. The enormous amount of natural environments and human factors that take part in this game in time past gone and that have created deposits of gold are apparently not so effective at present.

An incident or two when not finding it in places with evident signs of its presence and maybe an incident in which someone would find gold somewhere not as apparent can sometimes make an amateur gold-seeker to believe that “gold is where one finds it and no matter where one looks for it.” This is not a very healthy point of view for the author of this book. In my own experience, the most successful gold-seekers are those who have learned to seek gold in places where it should be & understand that sometimes it will not be there for reasons not evident at the beginning.

It is also true that gold seekers with real experience can, most of the times see the reasons for gold not to be there. While it is true that gold will be where one finds it there are certain factors about gold that are invariably real, one can use these factors to determine where to look for gold.
