[QUOTE="Dignit, post: 414412, member: 5167"] Hey Jeff What do you mean by reduced ground water? I understand the effects of huge crustal pressure, water that has seeped down from the surface, and heat causes hydrothermal fluids to be forced up through the weak cracks and faults in the earths crust and as the fluid rises and cools gold solidifies in the form of gold infused Quartz; And where the fluid is forced in to a flat make branch spur with intersecting fault containing other host rock like iron stone, slate or graphite (known as an indicator) a just right chemical reaction and drop in pressure at the intersecting fault causes nuggety gold to form. I hope I have this right, and happy to be corrected if not. Cheers [/QUOTE]
