In certain locations the soil can be washed with high pressure hoses. The resulting mud slurry is run through a sluice trough where the heavier gold particles drop out of the slurry. Hand seining is also used to expose gold flakes or nuggets. (Like you see in the movies).

Compare and contrast deciduos forests and tropical rain forests?

tropical rain forests are much warmer because they are located in regions closer to the equator. Deciduous forests have seasons, tropical rain forests do not because of the fact that they reside in places where climate change is very small throughout the year. deciduous forests contain fewer tree species than tropical rain forests, but due to this fact deciduous forests receive more direct sunlight at ground level that rain forests do. this supports a richer and more diverse plant life at ground level. they are similar in that they both receive pretty large amounts of precipitation and they are both being affected by deforestation by humans.
