The problem is it's 'flour gold', very fine and difficult to extract from the sand. It didn't stop people from trying. I've run into some hobby miners but they're a closed mouth paranoid bunch. I've always wondered what they see that triggers them to dig like a badger here and not over there but they're not talking. https://www.kpax.com/news/missoula-county/wildlife-officials-urge-public- to-avoid-bear-den-on-mount-sentinel The mine is about 25' deep so they gave up. Butte was the copper lode but I don't think anyone found gold, silver, or copper here. Even copper was a disappointment until electrification made it a valuable commodity.
