Phot of museum speciment enlarged to show detail. F or most people, the mention of gold prospecting is likely to evoke an image of men in slouch hats and western garb, armed with goldpan, pick and shovel and accompanied by a trusty burro packed with supplies for several months in the wilderness. As we know from film and novels, these hardy fellows spend much of their lives combing the hills, for that vein of precious yellow metal which will make them rich. In reality, the modern western prospector typically works for a salary, discovery or not, and he is likely to wear a baseball cap with a company logo. He uses a four-wheel- drive vehicle instead of a burro, usually stays in motels, and his prospecting tools include topographic maps, a plastic garden trowel, cloth bags, compass and tape measure. Even more incongruously, the modern prospector almost never sees the gold he is searching for, even when his work result in a major discovery and the opening of a mine.

So he broke new ground and made data on the mine available online to anyone who wanted to help. Eureka! The Internet gold rush was on. From: Issue 59 June 2002, Page 40 By: Linda Tischler Photographs by: Chris Chapman In January 1848, a work crew at John Sutter's mill, near Sacramento, California, came across a few select nuggets of gold. Before long, a half-million prospectors arrived there seeking instant riches. The gold rush was on. Some 153 years later, another gold rush broke out at an old mine called Red Lake, in northwestern Ontario. This time, the fortune hunters wielded geological-modeling software and database mining tools rather than picks and shovels. The big winners were from Australia. And they had never even seen the mine.
