Gold In Tailing Piles

Some tailing piles contain fortunes in lost gold values if identified and properly reworked with modern mining methods. Lode or hard rock tailings and mine dumps can be very productive sources of gold specimens, as many times good material was often accidentally discarded with the mine waste.
