Hope y'all find this interesting. 
Four videos, the one titled "gold" is the one I refer to below.
They're all good, so watch all four.
This mine is in Africa, it's not the location though, it's the geology of the location.

My theory is that the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range has yet to reveal it's bounty. As the Sierra Block continues to rise, older and older rock becomes exposed. There very well could be undiscovered veins revealing themselves any day now, give or take a hun thou years. ;D
