How did a miner get gold from earth?

At first, gold was easy to find near the surface of the earth. Miners could dig it out with knives. Later on, miners found a better way to get gold out of the riverbeds. They loaded sand and gravel from the riverbed into a washing pan. Then, they held the pan under water, gently swirling it. The water washed away the gravel, leaving the heavier gold in the pan. This process was known as "panning for gold." Very few miners actually struck it rich. Many went broke trying to make their fortunes in the gold fields. Still, although many miners left the gold fields, they stayed in California. In time, they found jobs or took up farming. Women joined the gold rush, too. Some staked claims and mined for gold. Others took advantage of economic opportunities in the mining camps. Women ran boardinghouses, took in laundry, sewed for the miners, and opened bakeries.
