Gold flows with water in these rivers, can anyone extract it and become rich?

Swarnarekha River, flowing through Jharkhand, West Bengal and Odisha in India, is one of its most famous rivers. Local people have been searching for gold in its water and sand for years. It is said that this river carries so much gold with itself that in ancient times people of small villages used to depend on it.

Subansiri river of Arunachal Pradesh in North India is also famous for gold particles. The tribal communities here extract gold from the river sand and save it through traditional methods. This is not only heritage but also an important part of their livelihood.

There is no dearth of rivers of gold in the world too. America’s Missouri River was famous for the discovery of gold in the 19th century. During the Gold Rush, thousands of people found gold from the river sand here and many lives changed.

Similarly, gold particles are found in the Big Hole River of Montana, and history is witness to the fact that gold has been extracted from here on a large scale.

The story of Canada’s Klondike River is no less interesting. The discovery of gold here in the late 19th century started the gold rush in Canada. The particles hidden in the river sediment made many people rich, but thousands got only hope and hard work.

It is not an easy path to find gold in these rivers. Extracting gold from sand requires patience, technique and experience. Repeatedly filtering the water and sand, washing them and then gradually collecting the gold particles, all this is a long and laborious process.

This is why behind the shiny stories shown on social media, the real struggle and months of hard work are hidden.
