talk about back breaking work getting them huge boulders out back in the 1890s by hand and a dinky wagon,cart.You guys should first find out how much total gold was found in that mine before jumping the gun to dig where they left off.Always do research first,gather info.oh yeah......get a metal detector and go at it! save you tons of work and time.trusttttt meeeeee......

Placerville is still rich in gold. Every now and then you'll hear about a discovery of a big chunk of gold. If you go to Coloma, and go into the woods off the trails, you can see they're still mining for gold with the troughs in the streams. The American River's sand has a lot of tiny gold flakes (mixed with a lot of pyrite so it's hard to know) but the current is too fast to sift in the middle of the river. Need a waterproof overall too
Gold fever is still very much alive and well even today.

@lac123able How do you fall through water? You would just be wet, and then you would swim out.

LOL Nooooo. Leave the dynomite home. Any blasting may close the mine for good due to its age. Test the floor for gold that escaped the ore cart.

so wtf, did you find anything, should have taken a bucket of that cave in to pan out. 16 to 1 mine found a main vein right off the old mine shaft, poor bastards dug(by hand)right by a fortune back in the day

how did you know how deep the water was if nobody had been in it? then, someone knowledgable in these matters mentioned falling down a 1200 foot shaft? well, maybe a lifeless body after drowning or in a different mine sans aqua, but seriously, such exploration is rarely worth the risk. if the dumps show reasonable signs of auriferous mineralization, after taking all the necessary precautions, a more foolhardy soul than myself might entertain the idea of underground exploration

@lac123able Yeah, that could happen but if so, you might drown but you wouldn't fall.

@gregryf
Yes you can. The floor below could be 25'-50' ? totally flooded. They maybe should do more researching 1st.
