Gold Placers of the Secesh Basin, Idaho County, Idaho - by Stephen R. Capps - This District is located in the Central Idaho region and covers a larger expansive area. The Gold in the Placers has derived from both Lode Deposits as well as extensive glaciation that has covered the area. Because of this there is a large amount of gravels in the region, all mostly gold bearing, due to the way the glaciation occurred and in some cases was re-concentrated by creeks and streams some areas are richer than others. This book covers the importance of this and discusses the entire region, where good gold was found and lays a foundation for the prospector to seek out other areas of gold bearing gravel.
