Bring back dredging in California. It has minimal environmental impact and is great for fish populations. The environmental Mafia halted dredging to study its effects and never finished the study nor allowed dredging to resume. It's just deceitful.

It blows my mind that land is referred to as an "overburden". If anything humans are the overburden. Thanks for the informational video.

Check out the horseshoe bend on the bridge river near the confluence of the Yallakom River in British Columbia Canada ..About a 30-minute drive west on Hwy 40 out of Lillooet BC..In 1896, the Bridge River Gold Mining Co. developed a hydraulic mine at the Horseshoe Bend on Bridge River. The largest Bridge River nugget discovered weighed 32 ounces. was found in the east end of Horseshoe bend in the deep pool (Good fishing in that pool too)..This part of the Bridge River just happened to be on my 400+ square mile registered trapline which I owned and operated for well over 30 long years...
