"Through the ages, men and women have cherished gold, and many have had a compelling desire to amass great quantities of it -- so compelling a desire, in fact, that the frantic need to seek and hoard gold has been aptly named "gold fever." Gold was among the first metals to be mined because it commonly occurs in its native form -- that is, not combined with other elements -- because it is beautiful and imperishable, and because exquisite objects can be made from it."
From the USGS publication - GOLD by Harold Kirkemo, William L. Newman, and Roger P. Ashley

UPDATE - June 2016: With the price of gold dropping below $1500 per ounce we have not been able to make a living as small-scale gold miners and we do not currently have any gold inventory for sale. Hopefully the price will come back up soon and we can go back to doing what we love for a living.
'Desert' Drew & 'Mojave' Micki mine for native placer gold fines (A.K.A. flour gold, gold dust, gold flakes) and natural gold nuggets in the Historic Gold Basin Mining District, Mohave County, Arizona. The natural placer gold fines and gold nuggets that we find will be for sale on this website.
We live here in Gold Basin and we mine gold full-time. The majority of the placer gold that we offer for sale is from the Historic Gold Basin (Salt Springs) Mining District and from the nearby King Tut/Lost Basin Mining District. We occassionally travel to the Rich Hill (Stanton, AZ) and the Black Canyon (Black Canyon City, AZ) placer gold areas and placer gold from these areas will be marked as such in the listings.
All of our gold is sold to you with our personal guarantee of satisfaction. If you aren't satisfied with your purchase then simply return it within 10 days of receipt, and we will refund the full purchase amount.
