How much gold is still out there?

Fine gold makes up a large part of the placer gold that is remaining to be found. Old timers missed a large percentage of the fine gold in creeks leaving an opportunity for modern gold prospectors to capture what was missed in areas that have already been mined.

Here is another secret: The old timers had a different idea of how much gold was “enough”. There are documents that show how a group of miners walked away from a creek after just a couple weeks because it was not rich enough to mine. They “only” found half an ounce per person… Per day. (by hand)

Get to where others are unwilling or unable to go. Pack light, stay efficient, and capture the surprising amount of gold that is still out there waiting for you!
