Parkhurst Mining Writing Collection, which is a compilation of articles by the author that were originally published in the former California Mining Journal (now the ICMJ) in the 1980s and early 1990s.

GOLD PLACERS AND MINERAL DEPOSITS encompasses four topics: (1) how, where and why mineral deposits form; (2) the formation and characteristics of placer deposits; (3) the nature, characteristics and concentration of gold and where to look for it, and (4) prospecting for valuable metals and minerals other than gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDave W.
