American Pageant 13th edition

Mining: From Dishpan to Ore Breaker Mining took off in California and soon spread throughout the entire United States, showing a prosperous future for America. The Fourty-Niners flocked out to California and Colorado when gold was discovered and started mining instantly. However, in both situations, the gold ran out very quickly. The Comstock Lode was discovered in Nevada and a fantastic amount of gold and silver was mined, at an estimated $340 million. After surface gold was found, ore-breaking machinery was brought in to make the job easier for everyone. Mining added to American literature with the writings of Bret Harte and Mark Twain.
