The Native Gold #6, is a gold placer mining claim, ideally situated between 2 large past producing gold and copper mines, the Planet and the Swansea which have produced large amounts of gold. Through erosion, placer gold has deposited down slope from these gold rich mines, and continues to do so, especially after heavy rain.
______________________________

Gold always occurs in gravels in the metallic state and when so found has various physical characteristics. Gold is dense and heavy, it has a characteristic metallic color, and it is soft and easily malleable (it is easily formed by hammering). These are the characteristics used by prospectors to identify gold in the field.
Placer gold occurs on the claim as small grains derived from gossan formed by weathering, and oxidation of the gold, copper and iron rich veins. Gold also occurs as grains flakes and small nuggets derived from the erosion of mineralized fault zones on, and upstream from the claim.
