Gold Prospecting Bering Sea

Gold Prospecting in the Bering Sea

From the creators of the Emmy®-winning DEADLIEST CATCH comes BERING SEA GOLD, on Discovery Channel.

Gold is found and has been mined throughout Alaska; except in the vast swamps of the Yukon Flats, and along the North Slope between the Brooks Range and the Beaufort Sea.

Many areas near Fairbanks, Juneau, and Nome are responsible for most of Alaska’s historical and current gold production. Nearly all of the large and many of the small placer gold mines currently operating in the US are in Alaska.

Six modern large-scale hard rock mines operate in Alaska in 2008; four of those are gold-producing mines . There are also some small-scale hard rock gold-mining operations. Alaska currently produces more gold (in 2007: 673,274 troy oz from lode mines, and 53,848 troy oz from placer deposits) than any state except Nevada.  In 2007, gold accounted for 15% of the mining wealth produced in Alaska   Yukon gold nuggets
