The latest Readers Digest has a story about the Gold Rush.

Thanks, Bill, for the Amazon Book Store site. I was very interested reading about the gold mines in Grass Valley (and all through California) at the time of the gold rush and was more than convinced that, as the tape says, they did not have the technology then to mine out the area fully and there are still golden 'elephants' (as Jim says) underground just waiting to be tapped. I vividly remember Darlene's description of The Golden Blob Monster, and am getting more and more excited as Stan's mining team works their meandering way following the "footprints" of this monster Motherlode vein. Can you believe....another parallel ore shute? To me that is phenomenal. If the Golden Gate ore shute (where's my book! Is that the right spelling?) produced as it did back then, and now there is another one, completely untapped, we do in fact have the makings of another California Gold Rush. Nevermind that it is a slow process making all this known, predictable, printable. I believe 1998 is going to be a glorious year for BCMD. The more we can read, the better informed we will all be and "to know is to love", if you know what I mean. The best thing I ever did for myself was to visit that mine and the second best thing was to get that mining book. This long-term project is like raising a child...one cares, it isn't easy, things do not always go right, and it is deeply rewarding.
