To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The tendency then is to sort the materials entering the streams, each particular stream varying that action with its varying conditions of grade, width, depth and character of channel. Such variations are constantly happening at any particular place owing to changes in shape of channel and seasons. It is evident then that there will be a considerable overlapping of the grades of sorted products, including the accumulations of gold and associated minerals. Disintegrated fragments of quartz-veins... entering a stream may be comparatively large fragments, pebbles or sands, which continue to be reduced in size by abrasion, thus gradually approaching the nor- mal specific gravity of the gold. The movement then of such a fragment under the action of running water becomes more and more retarded until freed of all adhering gangue it attains a maximum specific gravity, and a minimum volume, when it stops and is added to the accumulation in the bed of the stream, while the gangue passes on. It has been observed that coarse gold tends to be concentrated on soft bed-rock in preference to hard.
