Why are dense minerals more likely to form placer deposits than less dense minerals are?
placer deposits from where water is moving fast enough to move lighter materials.
. Minerals that are heavy durable and chemically resistant are likely to be found in deposits.?
placer deposits
Where do minerals occur and why?
minerals occur at veins and lodes,sedimentary ore deposits,alluvial or placer depositsand by weathering.
Where do minerals from cementation of igneous rocks come from?
during cementation, water deposits minerals that bind sediment particles together, which earth spheres are involved in this process?
Where in the us would you go placer mining?
You can go placer mining wherever gold is found in placer deposits. For gold, I'd suggest looking in Alaska, or California, or Arizona, though many other states also have gold in at least small amounts if you're willing to put in the effort. Montana is the state if you want to placer mine for sapphire.

What was placer mining?
A placer deposit or placer is an accumulation of minerals formed by gravity separation during sedimentary processes. Placer deposits are frequently beaches or river gravels. They are mined by gathering up the ore containing material and sluicing these using water.
