GOLD IN INDUS FLOWS TO WASTE
"Guld" is bemg carried by the river Indus without any check." says Dr. A. L. Coulson, Super- intending Geologist of the Geolo- gist Survey of India. in the course of a paper that he read at the general meeting of Mining, Geolo- gical and Metallurgical Institute of India on the subject of "Gold in the North-West Frontier Pro- vince."
"When the Indus is swollen in summer with water derived from the melting of the snows in its tigher reaches, it naturally, must carry," says Dr. Coulson, "in
70 ata. suspension and roll mechanically along its bottam, a lot of finely divided gold, won by the gold washers. Any check in velocity to thla sulmer flood-water will naturally result, in the deposition of some of the heavier minerals; including gold but the checking obstacle must not be far from the main channel of the river, as the velocity of the water some distance from the main channel of the river, will be insufficient to carry the heavy minerals, with the gold particles in susperision."
