To add on to my previous post I thought I would add a personal photo. In the summer of 2011 I took a trip to Georgia and stayed in the mountains in north Georgia. While I was there I visited Dahlonega, which is a cute little town that was the site of the first major gold rush in the US in 1828. While we were there my friend and I went panning for gold at one of the gold mines that operates tours. You're actually given the pan with the sediment already in it so I'm convinced that it's salted to make sure everyone can find a few specks of gold. I still have my small tubes with two tiny specks of gold at home.
