Hooked on Gold's Gold Question of the Week for April 11, 2007.
During the California gold rush, what method of mining was the largest source of gold before 1884?
ANSWER: Hydraulicking was the mining method that was the largest source of gold before 1884.
The picture is from the Tuscon Show. A FABULOUS example of leaf and crystal gold on its' background rock from Nevada. This show always has some of the best specimen pieces for show and sale we see all year. A great day for gold fans.
