Mining Techniques Used

Crow Creek Gold Mine is committed to providing our customers with the highest quality gold mining experience. We use a range of techniques to mine for gold at Crow Creek. Our two primary methods are placer and hard rock mining.

Placer mining utilizes water flow to separate heavier materials from lighter ones through sluicing or panning. The process involves running gravel, sand, and other material through a series of screens that are placed in a stream or riverbed. This method allows us to recover small pieces of gold more quickly than traditional drilling methods.

Hard rock mining requires mechanized equipment such as drills, loaders, and trucks. This technique is used when large amounts of ore must be mined quickly and efficiently. By using this method we can identify larger deposits of gold-bearing rocks which have the potential to yield greater profits over time.

We also employ modern technology such as geophysical imaging systems in order to locate mineral target areas before initiating any type of drilling operations. This helps us maximize efficiency while minimizing costs associated with exploration activities. All these tools enable us provide our customers with an unparalleled gold mining experience here at Crow Creek Gold Mine!
