Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Gold Dredging in Idaho tells the story of a revolution in placer mining—and its subsequent impact on the state of Idaho—from its inception in the early 1880s until its demise in the early 1960s. Idaho was the nation’s fourth-leading producer of dredged gold after 1910 and therefore provides an excellent lens through which to observe the practice and history of gold dredging. Author Clark Spence focuses on the two most important types of dredges in the state—the bucket-line dredge and the dragline dredge—and describes their financing, operation, problems, and effect on the state and environment. These dredges made it possible to work ground previously deemed untouchable because bedrock where gold collected could now be reached. But they were also highly destructive to the environment. As these huge machines floated along, they dumped debris that harmed the streams and destroyed wildlife habitat, eventually prompting state regulations and federal restoration of some of the state’s crippled waterways. Providing a record of Idaho’s dredging history for the first time, this book is a significant contribution to the knowledge and understanding of Western mining, its technology, and its overall development as a major industry of the twentieth century.

Book Synopsis The Dredging of Gold Placers (Classic Reprint) by : John Ernest Hodgson
Download or read book The Dredging of Gold Placers (Classic Reprint) written by John Ernest Hodgson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dredging of Gold Placers During the past two years the writer has contributed to English and American periodicals several articles, dealing with the phase of mining to which the following pages are devoted. Some interest appears to have been aroused among both mining men and the lay public by these articles, and the wish has often been expressed that they should be incorporated in one volume. This book is an attempt to meet that desire. The industry is a comparatively new one, and the views of dredging men in regard to many questions, both of construction and design, are still in a state of flux. This book is offered to the world, therefore, not by any means as a technical work, but in the sincere hope that it will help and interest company directors, property managers, prospectors, and those of the investing public who have acquired, or think of acquiring, a share interest in a gold-dredging concern.

Download or read book The Northern Gold Fleet written by Clark C. Spence and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Northern Gold Fleet is the story of how new gold-dredging technology was applied to the rich placers of the Far North from 1899 to the present, leading to mass production and economies of scale that made previously unprofitable resources profitable. The bucket-ladder dredge was a single, complex apparatus that rivaled ocean freighters in size. At once ugly, spectacular, and awesome, the dredges dug, classified materials, and performed gold-saving and tailing-disposal functions. A richly illustrated and comprehensive history. The Northern Gold Fleet is part environmental, part technological, part corporate, part labor, and part Alaskan in its thrust, offering a picture - both dazzling and absorbing - of how new technology simultaneously helped build the economy and lay waste the resources of Alaska.
