[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 679018, member: 4012"] 'Gold drifts' are the buried layers of gravel in which gold was deposited by erosion and stream/river action millenia ago - see more details here: [URL]https://www.startyourowngoldmine.com/dpe/planning/knowledge/books/getting-gold/gold-prospecting-auriferous-drifts.html[/URL] Most of these were discovered in the old goldrush days and exploited by subsequent mining activity, so without sinking shafts down to the bedrock level in unmined ground, tailings from old mining are probably your only option.
