How Do Geologists find gold? - Epithermal Deposits

[@markmayer2029]

How does a geologist find Gold? They hire a helicopter, then fly around until they see the locals mining it.

[@kathrynsnyder3582]

Thats to say the least the only massive gold deposits left are already known about and kept well hidden. Ir kept in states that have banned the mining of certain minerals. I believe virginia is one.

How can you be so sure

[@koltoncrane3099]

Patrick We’ll look at some examples. They know of gold deposits in Alaska but won’t give permission to mine it. It’s the same with oil. I almost think some politicians want these deposits left and then companies will go bust or give up and then they can buy it and in 40 years change the politics and be rich. Some families of political power go back a century. Playing the long game for some powerful families doesn’t seem like a stretch.

@@koltoncrane3099 true as that may be I believe lots of smaller branches of larger veins are still undiscovered, tho most the surrounding area isn’t fit for comercial mining at any point plenty there for small guys in some cases

The discovery rate is largely dependent on the price of the commodity and the permitting process. There has been a fundamental change to the exploration world as the internet captured a lot of money and fiber optics and wireless replaced a lot of copper cable. At PDAC a few years back the word was risk money was going to the marijuana industry. In the last few years the price of copper has driven a lot of new discoveries. I can rattle off a good number...josephina, filo del sol...onto...on and on. In the gold world...there seem to be plenty of folks with great rocks...large historic districts in Australia have undergone resurgence.
