How was gold extracted?
In the old days it was extracted from mines with pick axes. Gold nuggets were dug from veins of crystal quartz that often included silver, mercury, and lead. Today most of that ore has been tapped, and new methods are employed. The gold is no longer even visible to the naked eye--it is dust, scattered throughout an ore body in a zone. Strip mined ore is piled on slanted V shaped sheets of plastic where it is sprayed with a solution of cyanide. The cyanide bonds with the gold which settles into a pond. The pond is drained, the rich ore scooped up and further processed to recover the gold. A profitable ore body may contain as little as 0.02 oz of gold per ton of ore. I have toured several gold mining operations in northern Nevada, and have staked claims for other mines there.

How many tons of ore contain one ounce of gold?
The grade of the ore from which gold is to be recovered will determine how much of it must be processed to recover that ounce of gold. There is a broad variation, but there is plenty of gold in ores that is dispersed so widely that it is not economical to attempt commercial recovery. In an additional note, gold exists in veins within ores, and is not chemically combined with other elements within that ore. Mines that are probably considered marginal yield something on the order of 4 to 6 grams of gold per ton of ore, and you can do some simple math from there (perhaps using 5 grams/ton) to discover an answer for the stated grade of ore. There are just over 30 grams in a Troy ounce, and at 5 grams/ton, you're looking at 30 divided by 5 or 6 tons of ore to recover that (Troy) ounce of gold from ore with a grade of 5 grams/ton. If you have 6 tons of ore, that's a lot of ore, and you have a lot of hard work ahead of you if want the ounce of gold disbursed in it. It will take time and energy to win the metal, and it might be as cheap to buy the gold as to recover it from the ore. But we'll leave it for you to do the math after you get an assay.

Why are gold ores worth a lot?
Gold is rare, and maleable. It is easy to work with, and looks good.A gold ore however may contain less than fifty cents worth of gold metal per ton. As a consequence the gold ore is worth only a small percentage more than the base rock itself.
