When it comes to finding and mining gold, there’s no easy way to do it. There’s no shortcut, and backbreaking work is always involved. That said, gold mining doesn't always involve large mining operations with huge vehicles and expensive equipment. Sometimes gold mining can be accomplished with just a very cheap gold pan and sluice! We are of course referring to finding gold in ancient riverbeds and similar geographic locations. While it’s still a lot of physical labor to get gold from these sources, it’s still an accessible way to mine for gold for those with the determination and resolve to do the work! (One word of note: gold isn't found in just any old riverbed; your best bet by far is to look in riverbeds where gold has already been found, such as some places in Alaska for example.)

Gold is a fascinating metal, and not just because of its appearance. There are all sorts of interesting aspects about gold that make it desirable, and the World Gold Council has compiled a small list of such facts and figures. Check it out!

Did You Know: Gold comes in many colors, and these colors are obtained by mixing gold with other elements? For example, there is such a thing as purple gold - it comes from an alloy of gold and aluminum! Other colors of gold include green, rose/red, white, and even blue! This handy chart from Wikipedia demonstrates how some of the colors of gold are made: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/File:Ag-Au-Cu-colours-english.svg
