Best Answer

Most Montana gold mines are in the western mountainous areas of the state. The 3 major gold strikes in Montana were Alder Gulch (1862)- near Virginia City, Grasshopper Creek (1862)- near Bannock and Last Chance Gulch (1864) in Helena. Gold was found in many other areas such as Deerlodgs - small strike was found, Butte - mostly copper and silver mining and the areas surrounding them.
