Geological Reports in California
In California to get information referred to where to buy geological reports of any specific county within the state, one must address to: California Geological Survey, 801 K Street, MS 12-31, Sacramento, CA 95814.
Sometimes, a specific report of a specific county is off-print and will not be available. In these cases, the Geological Survey should be able to provide information on where to research for that specific topic. Generally, large libraries and museums in each county might have copies of the specific geological reports of counties published over the areas. Likewise, as years go past by much of the historical information is being hung on the Internet by federal, state and county agencies to allow people to view it through this medium.
If seriously considering the idea of seeking for gold in reasonable quantities, and still do not have any idea on which site to begin operating, or if one is looking for a better area, one should consider getting some books about “where to find gold,” as well as geological reports that could provide interesting information about the counties. By following procedures, one is using accumulated information about almost everything related to mining carried out in the past. If one does a good job most surely one will locate a good place within an auriferous area.
Another factor to take into account when one is seeking for a good current place ground is the presence of neighboring benches, especially when near creeks and rivers in which one has a special interest in examining; mainly because these benches are eroded and washed up to present creeks and rivers by storms that deposit the gold.
For more than 100 years of natural erosion and storms, these have deposited enough amount of new gold in creeks and rivers. Maybe some are not that rich as they sometime where, but some of them pay well and consistently to those that deposits.
