I ran across this old book that has been put up in google docs for all to enjoy.... A real treasure trove of info on gold mining.
Enjoy.

Practical Gold-Mining: A comprehensive treatise on the origin and occurrence of gold-bearing gravels, rocks, and ores, and the methods by which the gold is extracted by Charles G. Warnford Lock 1889

https://books.google.com/books/about/Practical_Gold_mining.html?id=EF1YAAAAMAAJ

788 pages of Old knowledge....... You can download the book as a PDF so you won't have to keep going to google to read it.
I tried to download the PDF here but the file was too big.... 43 meg.

On the google page there are several other gold related books you may enjoy as well.

Thanks John. I think that might have been one I had on my puter long ago, but Windows had done an unauthorized full system restore and wiped it out. I've got quite the collection of downloaded literature - probably enough to keep me reading for years! :tard: Oh well, another one to the list. :thumbsup:
