Description

The placer potential mapping process consisted of applying a classification rating of 1 to 5 (lowest to highest) for all streams within the planning area. Factors affecting a stream's potential included development history and hard rock mining potential (gold deposit potential). Terrain attributes such as potential overburden thichness, water flow, or local topography were not factored into the rating due to lack of knowledges for most unmined drainages.
