Prospecting for Gold
Post-World War II mining efforts were directed mainly toward locating base-metal ores rather than panning for placer deposits. A placer deposit is a concentration of mineral that has accumulated along with the sediment in a stream. Because of the length of time needed for gold to corrode and its relatively heavy weight in comparison to the sediment in the stream, gold tends to accumulate in placer deposits close to the rocks from which it came. 【題組】 2. Sediment is (A) heavier than gold (B) lighter than gold (C) in the rocks
(D) along the sides of the stream.
