The western United States is one of the richest gold-bearing regions in the world, shaped by millions of years of geologic activity. From the Sierra Nevada to the Rocky Mountains, gold deposits tell a story of geological forces that brought this precious metal to the surface.
Gold has long been a symbol of wealth and a hedge against economic uncertainty. In 2025, the precious metal has once again captured the spotlight, reaching unprecedented heights, hitting prices to over $3,300 per ounce.
The Mining Law of 1872 grants individual U.S. citizens the right to enter public lands and explore for locatable minerals, including gold. These rights are significant because they empower individuals—not just large companies—to access to national resources.
